A spokesperson from the pavilion, which turned 100 in 2021, said, “Evie was very excited to have won when she came to the pavilion to accept her cash prize and to see her poster after it had been professionally printed.”
Details about the competition, which was held by HOPS, were passed on through the media and to local schools.
The pavilion said this led to many ‘fine’ submissions.
