Monroe County Executive Cheryl Dinolfo announced the winners of the first annual Monroe County STOP DWI High School Public Service Announcement (PSA) Radio Contest. The winners taking first, second and third place are all Gates Chili High School students in Janell Bernas’ Peer Leaders class. First Place: Maya Blackwell, Kynesha Milwood, and Zionah Campbell; Second Place: Connor Hamilton, Brittany Hargrove; and Third Place: Amanda Andorka, Jessica Donath, and Azizi Sarkis. The contest invites local high school students to create a 30-second public service announcement about the dangers of drunk driving. “In our media-focused world, the STOP DWI Radio Contest provides creative opportunity for students to help lead the fight against impaired driving, said Dinolfo. The students each received a certificate and first place winners received $400; second place winners received $200; and third place winners received $100.
