Caddo Magnet in Vans competition: please vote at vans.com/customculture

Fifty thousand dollars in art department prize money is up for grabs, says Vans shoes. In the next week (deadline May 2) the qualifying high schools with the best organizations will win the Vans shoe customization contest.

And Caddo Magnet is in the semi-finals category, says teacher Shirlene Alexander.

At the site Vans.com/customculture one sees that Caddo Magnet is the only semi-finalist from Louisiana. Magnet faces 9 school / community organizations in the southeast division.

The voting process is quick, says student Rachel Carson.

Evidently only one vote from each IP is counted.

With students all over the world painting their shoes today, the first level of competition was stiff, noted James Young.
Having made the design and execution cut, the Magnet team hopes that the community will support them in the voting.

Voting closes at 11:59 pm on Mon, May 2, said Ashley Anderson.
