On Thursday, April 27, 2011, the Texas Water Foundation will host Water Conservation Day at the Capitol. The event is held during the legislative session, so that members of the state legislature are exposed to the water conservation programs in our state. As policy makers consider important water conservation legislation, knowledge of existing water conservation programs is helpful.
This year, The Education Cooperative hosted an art contest for high school juniors and seniors in each UWCD. For this contest, the students were asked to create artwork that depicts an original water conservation messages.
Eight students were selected, two from each UWCD, to travel to Austin in the Spring for Water Conservation Day at the Capitol. Their artwork will be displayed in the halls of the State Capitol during Water Conservation Day. The students will also work as a page for a state representative during their two-day visit in April.
The winners from each UWCD Are.....
