Fifth Grade Plymouth Creek Student Emma Maki Earns Grand Prize and a "Ride to School in a Fire Truck" in Plymouth Fire Department’s Annual Poster Contest
Emma Maki, a fifth grade student at Plymouth Creek Elementary School, won the grand prize in the Plymouth Fire Department’s annual fire prevention poster contest. Maki’s poster was chosen from eight different elementary schools and will go on to compete at the regional level.
Maki’s poster won her a ride to school in a fire truck and a $25 cash prize from the Plymouth Crime and Fire Prevention Fund. In November, Plymouth firefighters will escort Emma, her family and teacher Mrs. Kostik, to the regional poster contest banquet in Minneapolis. At the banquet, local winners from Hennepin and Anoka counties will be recognized for their work. One regional winner will be selected from the city winners and his or her poster will go on to compete at the state level.
In addition to the grand prize award, one first place winner was selected from each Plymouth elementary school that participated in the contest. These first place winners received a $15 check from the Plymouth Crime and Fire Prevention Fund. In addition, Plymouth firefighters will visit their classrooms with popsicle treats for their classmates.
