To help celebrate the start of Black History Month, the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp are asking students what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have A Dream” speech means to them. The club’s essay contest will reward the winning students with free tickets for their entire class to attend the Jumbo Shrimp’s Jackie Robinson Day game at 7:05 p.m. on Monday, April 15, as well as a classroom visit by either Scampi or Southpaw.  The Jumbo Shrimp’s essay contest is open to all K-12 students in Duval County, Clay County and St. Johns County. All entries should be submitted by 5 p.m. on Thursday, February 28th to win@jaxshrimp.com and must include the student’s name, age, grade and school.
