3203 students from 56 schools drew entries for the 6 regional contests. One hundred twenty-two teachers participated this year. At the conclusion of regional judging, each regional competition submitted their top twenty-four entries for judging at the state level. From these entries, 12 Winners were selected, along with a number of Second Place or Honorable Mention entries.

The twelve state winners' drawings will be depicted in a 2010 calendar which will be available in October by contacting Econ Illinois with the complete mailing address. The calendar is made possible through funding from HSBC North America. All teachers who entered the 2008-2009 contest will receive calendars and do not need to request them.
