Note: Cola City participants may enter this contest as part of our Green Steps initiatives. Contact colacityinfo@gmail.com to submit your entry under our group. It is a public event, if you prefer to enter individually, contact Richland County Conservation District for more details
Theme 2024: May the Forest Be With You Always
Forests are amazing ecosystems that are home to many plants and animals. Forests purify the air we breathe, filter the water we drink, prevent erosion, reduce flooding, and serve as buffers against climate change. Forests also produce a variety of products used by people, including lumber, paper, food, and medicine.
We invite Richland County K-12 students to create a poster illustrating why forests are important, and how we can protect and conserve forests so they will be with us always.
Eligibility
Richland County students in grades K-12 should submit their posters to the Richland Soil and Water Conservation District for local judging by Friday, April 12, 2024. Students in other counties in SC should contact their local conservation district for entry deadlines and details.
Rules

Posters MUST be 14”x 22”. We can provide up to 24 sheets of 14”x22” poster paper per school; contact Chanda Cooper at cooper.chanda@richlandcountysc.gov to request supplies.
Any media may be used to create a flat or two-dimensional effect, including paint, marker, ink, crayon, charcoal, colored pencil, stickers, collage, wallpaper, magazines, photos, digitally-designed graphics or flat objects found in nature.
Posters should be packaged so they remain flat when sent for judging.
All posters must be created by an individual student rather than a team of students.
The 2024 contest topic (May the Forest Be With You Always) must be on the poster.
Attach a signed entry form to the back of the poster. Student or school names must not appear on the front of the poster.
Entry must be contestant’s original creation and may not be traced from photographs or other artists’ published works.

Evaluation
Posters will be evaluated by grade level according to the following criteria:

Conservation Message: poster illustrates why forests are important and/or how we can conserve forests. (50%)
Visual Effectiveness: poster attracts attention, uses colors and white space effectively, is easy to read, is neat, and makes good use of colors and shading. (30%)
Originality (10%)
Overall Appeal (10%)

Submission
Posters completed by Richland County students should be delivered to the Richland Soil and Water Conservation District by Friday, April 12, 2024. Posters may be dropped off in person or mailed to 2020 Hampton Street, Room 3063A, Columbia, SC 29204. Posters should be packaged to remain flat when sent for judging.
Competition Progression and Awards
Richland County winners will progress to the state competition in Fall 2024; state winners will progress to the national competition in Winter 2024. Cash prizes will be awarded at each level.

County Competition: $25 prizes will be awarded to winning posters in each of five grade level categories. Cash prizes are sponsored by the Richland Soil and Water Conservation District.
