Winners of library Peeps contest announced
Close to 400 votes were cast for favorites in four categories
The Paso Robles City Library’s Peeps diorama contest winners were recently announced. The diorama displays featuring the sugary Easter confections are visible throughout the library with a total of ninety three diorama entries in the children, teen, adult and family categories combined. The dioramas will be on display throughout the rest of the month.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled with community support for this whimsical contest to celebrate National Library Week,” said Heather Stephenson, contest coordinator and Children’s Services Librarian for the City of Paso Robles. “A big thank you to everyone who took the time to create all of these amazing dioramas and to those who visited the library to vote and enjoy the show.”
Prizes were generously donated by Harmony Cellars Winery, Park Cinemas, Cold Stone Creamery, In N’ Out Burger, Jamba Juice, and Just Born Candy Company (the folks who make marshmallow Peeps).
