2011 Conservation Poster Contest planned
For more than 50 years, a national network of conservation districts has helped Americans learn to conserve natural resources.
This year, the Tensas-Concordia Soil and Water Conservation District and America's conservation districts are participating in the 21st Annual Conservation Poster Contest. The poster contest takes during the months of September and October, with the theme "Forests for People."
The annual poster contests provide kindergarten through 12th grade students with an opportunity to share their thoughts about soil, water and related natural resource issues. The contest will have five categories: K-1, 2-3, 4-6, 7-9, and 10-12.
Local judging will occur during the first of November, so it is important that entries are received no later than Friday, October 28, 2011. Cash prizes will be awarded in each category.
The first place district winner in each category will be entered in the state competition. In the state competition, first place winners in each category will be awarded with cash prizes of $100 and second place winners will receive a $75. The first place winners in the state contest will be sent to the national poster competition, where First place winners receive $100 and second place winners receive $75.
The Tensas-Concordia Soil and Water Conservation District wants to help people in our community to learn how important it is to help conserve all our natural resources and how easy it can be.
For information about the conservation poster contest please contact Zacki Cummings at the Tensas-Concordia Soil and Water Conservation District office located at 8331 Highway 84 in Ferriday, Louisiana, 71334.
