Tilikum is hosting a contest to design the artwork for its 2011 camp T-shirts. There are two designs: one for the Tilikum Adventure Programs (grades 6-12) and one for the Day Camp (grades 1-6).
The Tilikum Adventure Programs theme is “Revealed.” With this theme, we are exploring the ways God reveals himself through creation, Scripture, history (our own stories and those of others), and present-day encounters. The Day Camp theme is “Rooted: Growing in God.â€
The winner for each design will receive a T-shirt, a $20 gift card to Chapters, and the satisfaction that more than 2,300 campers and staff will be wearing their artwork.
You may submit artwork for both themes. Time is running out. The contest ends Tuesday, May 3!
