Young winners of the Star/Journal’s annual Christmas Essay Contest for 2012 were all able to gather together for a cheque presentation and group photo recently at the Barriere Elementary School. First place cheques of $25 each went to Bobby-Raye Farrow and Lauren Tremblay, second place winners Kaeli McDonald and Sheldon Vansickle received $15 each, and third place winners Tanner Schilling, Madison Kerslake and Colton Van Nieuwkerk each received $10. The newspaper apologized for the delay, noting an unexpected accounting glitch had been the cause.
