Annual soil and water poster contest open
Jackson County students in third through ninth grade will get a chance to share their messages on the importance of soil and water with this year’s annual contest through the Jackson County Soil and Water Conservation District.
The theme for this year’s contest is “Soil and Water — Yours for Life.” Students in third through sixth grades may enter a poster illustrating their take on the topic. Students in seventh and eighth grades can enter a speech, and students in ninth grade can enter a computer-designed poster.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the first, second and third place entry in each grade level, with the teacher of the winning student also getting a prize. Winners go on to compete in a regional contest. Students in public, private and home schools are welcome to enter.
