Erik Garcia, a third-grader at Harrell Budd Elementary School in Dallas, is this year's grand-prize winner in Dallas Area Rapid Transit's (DART) 2010 Student Poster Contest. His winning entry can now be seen through the end of August on several buses throughout the DART Service Area.

Garcia's winning artwork with the theme "Let's Ride Together" was recognized as the best out of approximately 290 entries at the DART Board meeting Tuesday, May 25.

Students from kindergarten to twelfth-grade participated in the annual contest to help promote the use of public transportation. Winners in the kindergarten through fifth grade categories will receive a Radio Disney presentation for their class while winners in middle and high school levels will have their artwork featured at DART rail stations.

Garcia and various grade-level winners have their posters on display at www.DART.org.
