The Department of Water Supply (DWS), County of Hawaii, launched its inaugural 2019 Water Conservation Poster Contest, open to all keiki, kindergarten through fifth grade. Entries are due on Friday, March 22 in celebration of World Water Day.
This year’s theme is “Water, Our Most Precious Resource,” which is also the DWS motto. Students will be asked to creatively interpret why drinking water resources need to be valued, protected and conserved, as well as offer suggestions for incorporating water conservation practices into their daily lives. Conservation resources, as well as the DWS video — Water, Our Most Precious Resource, is available on the DWS website as a reference for ideas. The poster contest aims to increase awareness and encourage the wise and efficient use of our most precious resource, fresh drinking water.
