Clean Water Week Student Poster Contest
National Clean Water Week is celebrated every year in June to remind everyone of the importance of protecting our water resources. Members of the NHWPCA dedicate their careers to keeping our waters clean by operating wastewater treatment plants to eliminate the discharge of pollutants to our rivers, lakes and streams. To help them spread the word about the need to keep our waters clean and unpolluted, the NHWPCA invites grade-school students to create a poster for their yearly Clean Water Week Poster Contest. Students in grades 1 - 3 and 4 - 6 attending any New Hampshire are eligible to enter. Packages containing a letter signed by the Governor and contest details are sent to all grade schools in New Hampshire in October. Only one entry per school is allowed and must be received by the deadline in February. Posters from grades 1 - 3 and 4 - 6 are judged separately with prizes awarded in each grade group. The poster must cover the theme which changes yearly. The theme for 2007 was "Clean Water is Everyone's Job". Pictures from 2008:
