National Winners Selected In It’s A Snap! Photo Competition
Kmart Corporation and Eastman
Kodak Company announced the na­
tional winners o f its jo in tly spon­
sored i t 's a Snap! UsingCameras in
the Curriculum " contest. Each w in ­
ner receives a $5,000 Savings Bond
Stacy Hess, an eight year old
student at New Franklin Elementary
School in Chambersburg, Pa. re­
ceived the top national honor for
Most Beautiful category photo.
Miss Hess’ entry captured a ten­
der moment amid the stark colors o f
a spring day in Pennsy lvania. W ith a
bold red bam and the blue sky as a
backdrop,
Miss Hess showed her younger
sister affectionately cradling a de­
lighted piglet at her parents’ farm.
Douglas Swafford, a seven year-
old and a resident o f Chula Vista,
Calif. (San Diego), was named na­
tional winner for his photo in the
Needs Improvement category.
Swafford’s photo o f a homeless
woman, who carries her belongings
in a shopping cart, reflects the type o f
innocence and bewilderment cap­
tured in many engaging photos. Yet
the image also reflects a subtle hope­
fulness.
Nearly a quarter-million students
across the United States participated
in the innovative educational initia­
tive designed to teach second-grade
students the art o f photography and
creative thinking skills.
To implement the " I t ’ s A Snap”
program, every Kmart store across
the country adopted a “ partner
school” in its area and presented a
curriculum package including a les­
son manual, an instructional video­
tape about how to identify compel­
ling photographic subjects, a step-
by-step how-to poster, a Kodak Fun
Time one-time-use 35 mm camera
x
for each student (up to 100 per
school), and a photo display unit.
After studying lessons about the
env ironment and the art o f photogra­
phy, the children were encouraged to
take pictures o f things that are beau­
tifu l and pictures o f things that need
improvement.

“ Learning the basics o f photog­
raphy is more than understanding
how to hold a camera steady, and to
keep fingers away from the lens. ‘ I t ’ s
A Snap!’ is an effective way to chal­
lenge children to explore their w orld
through the camera’ s view finder,”
said Shawn Kahle, Km art's Vice
President o f Corporate Affairs.
“ A dding the childrens’ own pic­
tures into the learning process brings
a new dimension to their education.
