Youth groups and Sunday/Sabbath School classes are invited to enter. Create a big colorful banner about what our CROP Walk does. Put your group's name on it, and bring it to the walk. Groups will gather under the "Banner Contest" sign for the "Banner Parade."

Winning banner contest groups recognized were as follows: the Youth Group from Littleton Congregational for their neat, complete, legible design; First Religious Society in Carlisle for their incredible handmade life sized boat, and the Neighboring Activists from First Parish in Concord for their leaves motif theme. Groups won pizza parties donated by Dino’s and Sorrento’s of Concord and Domino’s of Acton.

Your group's banner can be made of almost anything – an old sheet, muslin, felt – whatever captures your fancy! You may want to have your group make their CROP banner several weeks before the Walk so that you can display it and use it as publicity for the Walk.

All banners must be registered . Don't forget to bring your registration form if you haven't sent it in by the walk date.
