"Earth Day" Poster Contest - 2009 Winners
2009 Annual Earth Day Poster Winners Announced
As the 39th annual Earth Day rolled around on April 22, all over the country millions of Americans in thousands of local communities celebrated the day. NETL participated by holding its annual Earth Day poster contest and by placing on display at NETL the entries submitted by school children.
Students in grades Kindergarten through 5th grade participated in the contest. NETL chose a gold, silver and bronze winner from each grade level, judging on the basis of the number of entries received, originality, imagination, and innovative ideas. In some cases, the judging was close, so an honorable mention winner(s) was also given.
Students participated from various states (i.e., Arizona, Maryland, Massachusetts, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia) and the Phillipines with over 800 posters being submitted. Photos of the winning entries are displayed below.
To close the event, NETL Earth Day medals will be presented to all winners and certificates will be given to all participants. |
