Drive Less Video Challenge Winners Unveiled!

Competition in the Drive Less Video Challenge was close all around, starting with the 77 excellent entries received from across Oregon and SW Washington. Our judging panel had the difficult decision of determining the top five videos in the General and Youth Categories—the point spread between the finalist videos was close! More than 5,000 people then weighed in casting votes for their favorite ones.

Now for the winners! After combining the judge’s scores with public votes, we can reveal the: grand prize winner of the Drive Less Video Challenge: Dear Nana! Starting in June, Dear Nana will become the Drive Less/Save More Campaign’s next TV commercial, airing on all four Portland area TV stations. The creators of Dear Nana also won their choice of either an Apple iMac Computer with Final Cut Pro Studio or the cash equivalent of $3,000.
