Woodland students receive honors in two Veterans of Foreign Wars youth contests: the Patriot's Pen competition, an essay contest; and Voice of Democracy, which requires students to write and deliver a speech. On hand to congratulate the students is David Conrad from the VFW. Contest winners (from left) are Kaitlyn Green, first place, Patriot's Pen; Harlie Hinkle, second place, Voice of Democracy; Katelynn Hahs, first place, Voice of Democracy; and Karsyn Hastings, third place, Voice of Democracy.Courtesy of Tobi Layton
