Kindergartners to fifth-graders islandwide are invited to submit an original art work to the county Department of Water Supply’s 4th Annual Keiki Water Conservation Poster Contest.
This year’s theme is “Be a Superhero – Waste Zero” and the deadline for submission is Friday, March 11. Submissions illustrating this year’s theme are to be on flat, 11-by-17-inch paper. Any medium may be used, except for three-dimensional renderings, chalk, charcoal and oil-based crayon.
No computer graphics or photographs will be accepted.
Each poster submission should be accompanied by a completed entry form available at www.hawaiidws.org, via email by contacting dws@hawaiidws.org or by calling DWS weekdays at 961-8050. There is no entry charge to enter.
To reduce in-person contact due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, contest entries should be mailed to DWS in Hilo or dropped off in designated bins at DWS’ offices in Hilo, Kona or Waimea by March 11. Address locations and additional contest rules are listed on the attached entry form and at www.hawaiidws.org.
Prizes will be awarded to the 1st and 2nd place entrants from each grade level K-5, as chosen by a panel of judges, for a maximum total of 12 winners island-wide.
Winning entries will be announced at a future Water Board meeting.
