The top winner is named Junior Historian of Hunterdon County and awarded $100. For more than 20 years, this countywide annual contest has served to raise community awareness of local historic sites, and to satisfy State Core Curriculum Standards for teaching local history. Awards will be presented by Commission Chair Lora Jones and Honorary County Historian Stephanie Stevens at the May 17 meeting of the Board of Chosen Freeholders. Other awards include a $50 second prize, $25 awards to first place winners from each participating school, $10 awards for all school second place winners, and honorable mention for other notable essays. Winning essays are chosen by a committee of retired teachers. Competition is open to all third or fourth grade students in Hunterdon County public, private, parochial, or home schools. The entrant's grade level is determined by which grade students study state and local history in their particular school. Parents of students interested in competing should inquire at their school to determine if it is participating. Students who attend participating schools must submit their essays through their schools. Students who are home- schooled or attend a school not participating in the contest may submit entries directly to the Commission. Essays must be neatly printed or typed on plain 8½-inch by 11-inch paper. Report covers may be used, but loose-leaf ring binders will not be accepted. Compositions of any length should describe what the student believes is the most historic site in his or her own community. Source citations are required. Deadline for submitting essays to the Commission is 4 pm Friday, April 8, although they may be submitted at any time prior to that date. Teachers must include a typewritten, alphabetized list of participating students with the school's and the teacher's name and room number, if applicable. Teachers in Hunterdon who wish to receive contest materials should contact the Commission at 908.788.1490. Entries may be mailed to: Hunterdon County Cultural & Heritage Commission, PO Box 2900, Flemington, NJ 08822-2900 or hand- delivered to the Commission Office at 314 State Route 12, Building #1, Route 12 County Complex, Raritan Township.
