Winners of Local District Poster Contest are Announced.
The Nipomo Community Services District are more than provider of important services to their community, they are partners in educating the next generation about the importance of conservation.
Through a partnership with Science Discovery, the District provided conservation education in 3rd through 6th grade classes at Dorothea Lange Elementary, Dana Elementary, and Nipomo Elementary schools during the 2015-2016 school year. The students were given an opportunity to portray what they learned and submitted hand-drawn posters to the District in November. The goal of the poster contest was to encourage the wise use and conservation of water.
This year the District saw a record number of participating classes. With 70 students from eight classes participating, awards were presented by Board President, Dan Allen Gaddisfor for first, second, and third places in addition to Honorable Mentions.
Students were recognized for their efforts in the District’s Conservation Poster Contest during the District's regular meeting on January 11. The Board of Directors and District staff thanked the students for their participation and commended the teachers for educating students on the importance of water conservation.
The posters will be displayed in the District office lobby in the coming months.If you are in the area make sure to stop by the Nipomo Community Services District located at 148 S. Wilson Street in Nipomo, CA to check out the artwork.
