Every year the Moraga Lions Club?participates in an annual Peace Poster Contest alongside other Lions Clubs from over 200 countries. The 2023 theme is "Dare to Dream."
Students, age 10-13 years from Stanley Middle School in Lafayette and Orinda Intermediate School, competed for local prizes, with the winner from each school advancing to the District level which includes 10- to 13-year-old students from Alameda and Contra Costa?Counties. The competition continues until one international winner is chosen and that student will be presented a award of $5,000 at the United Nations, in New York City.
