Thank you to First National Bank for hosting a Coloring Contest!

🖍️ Look at how talented they are!

Our artists have been hard at work on their Santa Fe Trail Days Coloring Contest submissions. And we are displaying them proudly in our Las Animas location.

Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in each age group.

And awarded at Pocket Park next to the City of Las Animas at 3PM on April 24.

Thanks to all who shared their talents with us. Keep coloring! 🖍️
