Attention all budding filmmakers and artists, it's time to grab a camera and a sketch pad and get to work to enter the GEICO Safety Belt Video and Poster Contest.
The national contest is all about who can best illustrate the message that safety belts save lives, and everyone needs to make sure they buckle up.
All students -- public, private and home schooled -- are invited to enter the competition. They must be between the ages of 6 through 18, as of September 1, 2009. Close to 100 students won GEICO cash awards at the end of last year's contest.
This year there are three ways to win. Students can create a hand-drawn poster, a compute-generated poster or produce a short video. GEICO has a new Web site for students with the complete rules and entry guidelines for each category along with the prize list.
Go to geicosafetycontest.com for all the details and to see last year's winning entries.
Contest deadline is January 15, 2010, and after the winners are announced, GEICO will reprint and circulate the winning posters to schools, businesses, and safety groups across the country.
Winners of this year's new video category will be featured on geicosafetycontest.com as well as GEICOteendriving.com.
