Redmond Rotary’s RED-SPOKE Poster Art Contest Redmond Rotary’s 2011 Red-Spoke kicked off with an art contest at local schools to find this year’s Red-Spoke poster design. Judging the many creative entries is never an easy task, but one entry captured the hearts of the judges. Congratulations to first place winner, Annie Kim, of Redmond High School. Redmond Rotary is planning to announce the 2012 Redspoke Poster Contest winner in late 2011. So, kids, put your artist caps on and start working on next year’s design!
