魅影直播鈥檚 annual Hot Dog Day celebration will be celebrated on Saturday, April 20. 魅影直播 State first-year EOP student Renee Kintner (Olean) had her design selected to be featured on the Hot Dog Day t-shirts.
Kintner, an agricultural technology major, was excited to highlight her creativity when she entered the annual design contest. 鈥淚t was quite challenging at first, but through trial and error, my design represents the spirit of Hot Dog Day. My excitement is out of control with pride and joy, knowing that my artwork will not only add playful fun to this amazing event but also connect with attendees in a meaningful way.鈥
Kintner鈥檚 design centers around two playful characters, Mr. Mustard, and Mr. Hot Dog. Mr. Mustard is eagerly trying to add more mustard while Mr. Hot Dog is running away, saying that is enough.
