A candidate campaign skit by Nick Barrs, Jake Blackmon, Bronwyn Bigger, Christian Ditty, Dylan Jenkins, Zack Rogers, Luke Smith, Alex Ward, Eric White and Hampton Williams won third place.
Shelby Kenrick won second place (and an invitation to the national convention) for her colored-pencil creation, and second place in the "Large Group Talent" category went to a creation entitled "Toy Story 4: Andy Goes to Convention," by Amelia Carter, Tori Wise, Kelsey Cox, Bronwyn Bigger, Shelby Kenrick, Connor Usry, Ariana Williams and Laura Beth Winchester.
