10 Jan Kids Poster Contest
Wabash County Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) will be sponsoring their very FIRST conservation poster contest for Wabash County! The annual stewardship theme for 2018 will be “Watersheds-Our Water, Our Home.” It is open to public, private, and home-schooled students within the fourth and fifth grade levels. Please keep in mind this is the first year, and while the national contest covers all grade levels, the SWCD will begin by only judging fourth and fifth grade levels.
The top poster from each grade level within the county will receive, public recognition, a monetary prize alone with a class party, all sponsored by Wabash County SWCD. The two posters will then be displayed at the SWCD Annual Meeting, on March 2nd. Fallowing this, the posters will be submitted to the state and potentially the national level. At the national level, top three posters in each category( K—1st Grade 2nd—3rd Grade 4th— 6th Grade 7th—9th Grade 10th—12th Grade) will receive monetary prizes and recognition at the NACD annual meeting.
