Writing Contest: If I had a Time Machine

Where would you go if time travel were possible?

That is the question we are posing to elementary school students across Kentucky with our 14th annual Writing Contest.

This year’s theme is “If I Had a Time Machine …”

What would your time machine look like? Would you travel back in time or to the future? Do you seek out a famous historical figure, or a future version of yourself? We want to know!

Entries will be judged in three grade categories: K-1, 2-3 and 4-5. Stories are limited to 100 words for grades K-1, 150 words for grades 2-3 and 200 words for grades 4-5.

All Kentucky children are invited to participate, whether they attend public, private or homeschool.

One boy and one girl winner from each category will be chosen, along with honorable mentions. Grand prizes include Nanea the new American Girl Doll, model horses from Breyerfest, a Pulse Performance Scooter, a Nerf Rhino-Fire Blaster and more.

Honorable mentions will receive prize packs of books by Disney-Hyperion.

The winners will be announced at our annual Summer Camp & Activities Fair on Saturday, April 14 at Lexington Christian Academy. The Fair is free and open to all.

Entries must be submitted by the deadline of Friday, March 23.
