The Urbandale area will have a fresh new look, thanks to some young artists and a contest by the Urbandale Planning Council and Neighborhoods Inc. Last night, Alvin White III was announced as the winning designer of 13-foot-tall razor banners for the community.

Alvin won a 1st place Blue Ribbon, an anonymously donated currency gift and  Alvin’s design will be printed on the back of a T-shirt for him to wear throughout this summer.   His signature will also be on each banner.  The White family also gets passes to Binder Park Zoo for the whole summer, and Alvin gets a savings account at Chemical Bank.
