    Judge Comment: This was very tough for me as I wish I could have put this in first. If there was a split choice I would have as it was that close for me. Super great graphics and the interactive Clark piece was super fun. Keep up the great work.

    Judge Comment: The map of pedestrian issues surely sparked conversation in your community. Great use of a map. Your other graphics were well done as well, but that one stuck out as a good idea for me to steal for our papers.
