THESE BOOTS WERE MADE FOR... A Contest for Writers of All Ages

Imagine you have a pair of magic boots. When you put them on, you can travel back in � me. Write a story about what you see and experience on your trip back in � me to the early days of Sonoma County. What

was your town like? If you choose, you can tell your story with pictures (like a comic strip!) instead of words. But if you write,

use major league verbs, adverbs and adjec� ves--you want your readers to under-stand what you’re wri� ng about. If possible, do some research and include facts in your story. All entries must be printed or wri� en on one or two pages of 8 ½” x 11” paper. Leave the back of each page blank (except for your name, age and address). If you have more than one page, staple them together. Remember to tape a Contest Entry Form* to your entry.

COLORING CONTEST Use crayons, colored pencils or felt pens to color your own version of this year’s Fair logo. Use an offi cial entry form or a copy of the form on white paper.

Old West WANTED POSTER In the old west, Wanted Posters with drawings took the place of photographs, iden� fying criminals for law enforcement offi cers. For your entry in this contest, you can make a wanted poster for an imaginary bad guy or just about anyone. It might be a man, woman, child or even an animal! Use your imagina� on, then draw the picture and write a descrip� on. You can learn more about the tradi� onal format for Wanted Posters on the internet.Old west wanted posters were always in black & white (they didn’t have color copy machines!), so limit your entry to black & white. You can use a pen, pencil or crayon--just make sure it is easy to read. Your artwork must be original! No tracing, clip-art or anything “borrowed” from another source. No group entries -- each contestant must do their own work. Your entry should be no larger than 8 ½” x 11”, on paper only (not mounted). Remember - you will need to tape a Contest Entry Form to your entry.

MY Best BooTIn the Old West, cowboy boots were usually beat up and not very pret-ty. Boots were worn all the � me, for work and for play. But these days, some cowboy boots are really fancy. Using the entry form, create the cowboy boot of your dreams! You can use felt pens, pencils, paints, glit-ter or whatever you want to decorate the boot.
