The League of Minnesota Cities is holding its annual "Mayor For A Day” essay contest for students in fourth, fifth, or sixth grades this school year.
Essays can be emailed, submitted online, or mailed and postmarked by Friday, Dec 12. Up to four winners will each receive a $100 prize and will have their essays published in the League’s Minnesota Cities magazine. Winners will be notified in early January.
This year’s prompt is: “Cities provide a variety of services and programs that make our lives better, including parks and recreation, street maintenance, water and sewer, libraries, police, fire, and more. If you were mayor for a day, what would you do to make one of the services that your city provides event better?”
