2012 Coloring Contest Winners

Congratulations to the winners of the ninth annual Edgar Snyder & Associates "My Holiday Wish" coloring contest! The law firm received more than 700 entries from students in local elementary schools who depicted their holiday wish for our 2012 holiday card.

Nine-year-old Réka Götz of Wexford, PA was selected by an outside panel of judges as the grand-prize winner for her artwork shown below. Her artwork was featured on the cover of our 2012 holiday card, and she posed with Attorney Edgar Snyder for a billboard (shown above). For her creative entry, Reka received a $250 Target gift card and a $1,000 donation made in her honor to Marshall Elementary.
