Gainesville, GA-02/24/06: As part of the VISION 2030 project, Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce officials are looking for student paintings or drawings that can help people in Gainesville-Hall County visualize the future of our community.

Student must be an elementary, middle-school or high school student in public or private school or home school in Gainesville or Hall County and teachers must submit no more than two art works per class to VISION 2030. VISION 2030 officials will award one first-place winner and two runners-up for elementary, middle and high school submissions.
