Essay Competition
We extend a special invitation to enter our competition: “Why I’d Like to Visit Texas.” We’ll have one high school winner from each state across the country.
If you win, you will receive an all-expenses-paid trip for two to the great state of Texas! You will tour the state, stopping in six cities to visit overnight and to see landmarks. The prize includes hotel rooms, meals, round-trip transportation to and from Texas, and all your transportation within the state.
Carefully read the details below, start planning and writing, and send us your entry. We’d love to see you here in the Lone Star State!

You must meet each standard for your essay to be considered. You may only write about one of the Texas landmarks or Texas symbols listed under “Topics.” Your essay must be entitled “Why I’d Like to Visit Texas.” We encourage you to research many resources as you plan your essay.
