1:45 pm

Presentation and speech by Dr. Daniel Ghougassian, sponsor of the Youth Art competition who flew in from Sydney for the occasion.



The judges took nearly 40 minutes to decide the winners from
each category because the standard of work was amazingly high.
There is a lot of talent in our youngsters. However, as in any
competition, unfortunately not everyone can win a major prize.

Do not be discouraged. Your talent is tremendous.
Your future limitless. Keep up the good work.
Each entrant is a winner for having initiative, courage and talent.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL PARTICIPANTS
