Blodgett wins contest that promotes safe driving
Wiscasset Middle High School graduate Maeve Blodgett won third place in the 14th annual Arrive Alive Creative Contest sponsored by the Law Offices of Joe Bornstein. The contest asks students to come up with a creative message about the dangers of drinking and driving and/or distracted driving.
Blodgett created a bumper sticker and educational poster depicting how the decisions drivers make can negatively impact the lives of passengers and pedestrians. The Wiscasset native was honored among the top 20 winners statewide at an award ceremony June 13.
The contest is open to graduating high school seniors in Maine. First place winners receive a new laptop, second and third place winners receive a new iPad, and every student who enters receives fun prizes from the law firm. Since 2004, over 800 graduating seniors have entered the contest from 120 Maine high schools.
A complete set of rules and all past winning entries can be viewed at arrivealivecreativecontest.com or on Facebook. In the past 14 years, the firm has given away over $130,000 in prizes to help educate teenagers on the risks of dangerous driving.
