Blacklick third-grader wins Connells Maple Lee Kids Club birthday card design contest

Posted on by Neal


Abby Hollstrom of Licking Heights describes her son Logan, 8, as a “big drawer.”
“He’s constantly drawing and coloring,” she said of Logan, who is entering third grade. “Legos, lots of Legos. And reading, too. He’s very creative.”
That creativity no doubt contributed to Logan winning this year’s Connells Maple Lee Flowers & Gifts Kids Club birthday card design contest.
Logan’s aquatic design will be featured on the electronic card that kids club members will receive on their birthdays in the coming year. His prize is a free flower delivery on his next birthday.
The kids club is free to ages 5 to 12. With parental permission, children may register for the kids club at any Connells Maple Lee store or at cmlflowers.com/kidsclub.
Membership benefits include a membership card, website activities, an e-mail newsletter, contests and in-store events.
