The Americanism essay contest subject this year is “How can we support families who provide care to their Veterans.”
The contest is for students in third through 12th grade. Essays are divided into six classes for judging, including special needs. This contest was created to teach students the value of patriotism and what it means to be an American.
Each class has specific word counts for the essay. Go to legion-aux.org/Americanism-Essay-contest for a cover sheet. Mail to: Essay Contest, 109 Oreole Dr. NE, Solon, IA by March 21, 2022.
