The “Imagine this... “ story writing contest is currently open for submissions for 3rd-8th grade students. Participants have a chance to become published authors and gain recognition by having their names displayed on the State Assembly floor, along with an educational Capitol tour.

Additionally, winning students will receive e-readers, and the grand prize includes an all-expenses-paid trip to the state capitol for the Imagine this... ceremony in March 2024, with the inclusion of parents and teachers.

Students are encouraged to craft stories revolving around California agriculture. More details and an online submission process can be found at the link below. The deadline is Nov. 1.
