Prizes

We’ll have some thrilling prizes like a ride to the top of the Penobscot Narrows Observatory, tickets from the Maine State Ferry Service, a pass to one of the Maine State Parks or a pass to the Maine Wildlife Park in Gray! (Hey – we’re state government, we don’t have a lot of prize money hanging around.) But you will have the GLORY of having your words in neon lights (Well...LED lights actually)! Thousands of motorists will have a happier and safer commute thanks to you! Just think of the karma!
