Poster Contest
On this particularly cold, rainy, winter day in middle Tennessee, you might think I'm out of my mind posting information about Arbor Day, but I don't want anyone who is interested to miss the opportunity to be involved in the 2010 National Poster Contest put on by the Arbor Day Foundation. Many of the state deadlines are fast-approaching.
The annual National Poster Contest teaches thousands of students each year about the value of trees. This year's theme is “Trees are Terrific … And Energy Wise!”
The competition is open to all fifth-grade students nationwide. Visit www.arborday.org/postercontest for contest rules, state deadlines, and to view the previous year’s winners. A free educational guidebook with extensive classroom activities is available for download.
