Stormwater poster contest winners selected
The Las Vegas Wash Coordination Committee recently selected the winners of an annual poster contest partially funded by the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection.
Biologists provided a virtual presentation to 41 elementary classrooms across the valley, introducing 910 students to the Las Vegas Wash and the dangers of stormwater pollution. Students then tapped into their creative talents, creating and submitting a poster with their depiction of stormwater pollution.
First-, second-, and third-place winners were selected from the 59 submissions and received a Chromebook, membership to the Springs Preserve, and a gift certificate.
Congratulations to Jasmine Mauvais (Matt Kelly Elementary), Madalynn Miller (Stanford Elementary), and Omari Mahamed (Matt Kelly Elementary).
