While winning snowboards, gift certificates, and class scholarships is an incentive, perhaps the biggest reward for these emerging designers was to get their work in front of several of the top snowboard industry designers in Vermont, including Lance Violette of Violette Design, Stowe; Evan Rose of Burton; and Dennis Healy of Burton. All three were on hand for the award ceremony and happy to talk with several of the contestants.The Center received 675 submissions from four states - Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Vermont - and from Canada.The design competition was a project of The Art on Burton exhibition which ran through April 15th at the Art Center in Stowe.
