They are the creators of the winning television and radio farm safety commercials in a second annual provincial contest. Their winning entries came from 93 television and 63 radio spots submitted to the // Can Happen to Me contest. Last fall, contest sponsors UFA. CBC Alberta News and Alberta Agriculture, Food and Rural Development's farm safety program invited rural junior and senior high school students to submit teen-to-teen commercials promoting farm safety. The contest was expanded from the first year format to include radio commercials and junior high students. For the second consecutive year, a Sundre High School entry captured the top television prize. Heather Scott's talking animals entry was co-produced by Katie Jo and Jason Grahn along with Matthew Marr of Cremona High. The animated cartoon artwork of Kenlon Clark of St. Paul Regional High School was awarded second place. Matt Pederson, with the help of classmate Kallum Morland, of Fort Assiniboine School, produced the first place radio commercial. Their production emphasized the operator, not the equipment, may be the dangerous part of the farm safety equation. Lisa Ferriss of North Star used an attention getting "Hey, You!" theme in her second-place radio commercial. Winners will share $6,000 in scholarship. First place for television is $3,000 and second is $1,500. For radio, the winner receives $1,500 and second place, $1,000. The winners' schools also receive prizes. A video camera goes to the school with the winning television entry and tape recorder to the school with the best radio submission. "It was hard to choose the winners," says Jacqueline Galloway of Alberta Agriculture, Food and Rural Development's farm safety program. "It's difficult because the entries are fabulous and you can tell each one of the young people poured
