the Expo '86 World Exposition - an
unsurpassed educational oppor-
tunity consisting of entrance to all
exhibits, specialized demonstra-
tions, unlimited use of the mono-
rail, cable skyways and intra -site
ferries and a wealth of entertain-
ment.
Each winner will also receive a
colourful Pacific Western/Expo
'86 T-shirt and a custom made
Pacific Western/Expo '86 Flight
Bag. The total monetary value won
by F. E. Madill Art Students is over
$26,000.00. However, since ac-
commodation and ground tran-
sportation are not included, fund-
raising is needed. Accommoda-
tions are difficult to find for the
students at this relatively late time.
Due to such a large number of
students winning, it is hoped that
the communities and service clubs
will find it within their means to
support these students with their
expenses.
