Area students were recently invited to write essays or draw pictures describing and depicting Valdosta during spring. The contest was part of the recent Valdosta-Lowndes County Azalea Festival. A winner was chosen for each grade level among the students who participated county-wide. Valwood School was honored by having two winners this year. Coleman Campbell won in the Kindergarten Division for his creative drawing of a frog in the springtime using his talents (and tongue) to capture a bug in flight for his dinner. Reynolds Henry won in the Fourth Grade Division with his clever "Springtime in Valdosta" point of view: "In the spring, you can do a lot of summer things you can't do other places. Springtime in Valdosta is better than most places." ...a direct quote from his entry.
