Leah Scharff Hepler, manager, accounting and financial services, ASTM International, poses with the winners of the 2011 MacKenzie Park T-shirt contest at the 19th Annual West Conshohocken Community Day in West Conshohocken, Pa., on Oct. 1. ASTM has been a longtime sponsor of the contest, in which West Conshohocken children create T-shirt designs as part of the MacKenzie Park summer camp program. First-place winners have their design imprinted on the T-shirts for their age group and receive a monetary award; second-place winners receive monetary prizes; and all campers receive a participation prize for submitting a design. This year, in addition to the T-shirt contest, ASTM sponsored field trips to the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pa., and Adventure Aquarium in Camden, N.J., for the West Conshohocken summer campers.
