Magnolia student wins aquarium art contest

Basil Ulich, a third-grade student at John Hay Elementary School who lives in Magnolia, won first place in the Seattle Aquarium "Your Ocean - Our Home" art contest. This earned him a $2,500 college savings account from T. Rowe Price College Savings Plan and a Seattle Aquarium Family membership.

More than 1,000 students from around the region entered the contest, designed to provide a creative way for teachers to integrate the topic of healthy local marine animals and environments into the classroom. Ulich's art will be displayed on a ClearChannel billboard located on Fourth Avenue South near the ramp to I-90 for the next month.
