Mountain Vista Media takes home awards in all categories from the first-ever Colorado Student Media Association’s One-Day Winter Coverage Challenge. This contest was a challenge for student media programs across the state to focus on a day in the life of their school community. For Vista, the Winter Day Coverage Challenge focused on the last day of Wish Week.

The awards included:

1st Place- Large School Yearbook, Aerie Yearbook

2nd Place- Large School Print News, The Eagle Eye

2nd Place- Large School Online News, VistaNow

2nd Place- Large School Video Media, VistaNow

All of the place winners received an award certificate and first place winners had a $50 donation given to the Student Press Law Center in their name.

“It was really neat to get awarded for that because it was a huge week in the year and it was really great to cover,” senior Gabe Barnard said. “Everyone was passionate about telling all the stories of Wish Week. It was cool to see everyone’s work be rewarded.”
