Submissions Wanted for 2021 Central Washington Congressional App Challenge

Representative Dan Newhouse recently announced the launch of the 2021 Central Washington Congressional App Challenge.

The competition is open to all middle and high school students in the 4th District.

"Students can participate either as individuals or in teams of up to four. We've had some really exciting apps developed over the last few years." Newhouse said, "I really think it's a great opportunity for students in our district to demonstrate their talent and their creativity."

Interested students have until November 1st, 2021 to submit an app. Winners will be recognized and featured at the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C. as well as online.

Last year's winners, a collection of four students from around the Tri-Cities designed the winning app "Llama Trauma", which was made to draw attention to the growing problem of food insecurity.
