Hey there, water-saving superstars!
It’s me, Wayne Drop, your friendly neighborhood water droplet, with some big news and a call for help. Water – Use It Wisely is excited to announce the return of the ‘Save Water with Wayne Drop’ Sticker Contest, and we are looking for creative artists to help design an official set of Water – Use It Wisely stickers. The best part is that the artists behind them could be any Arizona 4th grader.
We’re inviting all Arizona 4th grade classrooms to join the ‘Save Water with Wayne Drop’ Sticker Contest. It’s a fun and creative way for our talented youth to show off their artistic skills while learning why saving water is so important. The best part? There are awesome prizes for both students and teachers!
What’s in it for you?
Three lucky winners will see their artwork turned into real-life stickers that will be shared across Arizona! Plus, they’ll score a framed certificate signed by me (Wayne Drop!), a roll of their very own stickers, and a $50 Amazon Gift Card. But wait – it gets better! Their teacher will also win a $200 Amazon Gift Card for classroom supplies and a roll of stickers to share. Because what’s a celebration without friends to share it with?
How Can You Get Involved?
Are you a 4th grader? This is your chance to put your creativity to the test and design a one-of-a-kind sticker that helps spread the word about saving water. Whether you want to draw a dripping faucet, a happy rain cloud, or even yours truly reminding everyone to turn off the tap – your artwork could inspire thousands to use water wisely!
If you’re a 4th-grade teacher, all you have to do is download the contest materials or request a packet to get started. Not a teacher? Know someone who is? Spread the word! Whether you have a kid in 4th grade, a niece or nephew, or a friend who teaches, be sure to let them know about this exciting opportunity!
