Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Fairfax County North Connection Entry Title: ‘Bear’ly; Beavers; Cancer Kicks Entry Credit: Mercia Hobson Judge Comment: The bear article is classic. Good usage of description to tell good stories.
Competition Comment: It is not fair to be limited to four places in this category. From flooding to pastry to the gay community, the entries were all compelling. Don't be discouraged because I could only pick four entries. Please continue with your writing, your contributions to journalism. There was not one subpar entry in this category.
