The Dickinson County Conservation District invites Dickinson County students to participate in the annual youth poster, limerick, and essay contest – “Healthy Forests Healthy Communities.”
The poster contest is open to public, private, or home school students in Dickinson County. Students will compete in poster categories by grade: K-1; 2-3; 4-6; 7-9; and 10-12. One winner from each of the grade categories will be selected and honored for their commitment to conservation.
The winning poster in each grade category will be entered in the statewide poster contest. Winning entries in the state contest in each category will be entered in the national contest and will be eligible for cash prizes.
Ask your child’s teacher if the class is participating in the contest or stop in at the Dickinson County Conservation District office, 328 NE 14th Street in Abilene for complete rules and an entry form. All students are eligible to participate in the contest, even if their school is not participating. For more information, contact Cindy Montgomery, 263-2787 extension 332.
All entries must be submitted to the Dickinson County Conservation office no later than January 15, 2021.
