The Long Beach Chapter (Susan B. Anthony) of the Daughters of American Revolution recently held a ceremony for its annual essay contest for local 5th-, 6th-, 7th- and 8th-graders. This year’s winning 5th-grade essay was “The Transcontinental Railroad: The Day the Golden Spike was Pounded In.”
Pictured are Susan B. Anthony Chapter Chair Marilyn Boone and the winner of the 5th-grade Division Marjorie Rhodes, a student at Weaver Elementary School in Los Alamitos. Marjorie’s essay will now go onto the next level.
