MAWSS Watercolor Contest Deadline Nears

Jun 5th, 2012

The June 8 deadline is fast approaching to enter the Mobile Area Water & Sewer System’s (MAWSS) annual “Fun with Water” Watercolor Contest. The annual competition asks children and teens, ages 6-18, to paint a picture of their favorite summer activity involving water. It can be a day at the beach, fishing, canoeing or just splashing in the pool. The idea is to get youngsters thinking about the importance that a clean and safe water supply plays in our quality of life.

Prizes will be awarded in four age categories, 6-10, 11-14, 15-16 and 17-18 with one overall winner. All winners will receive gift certificates to Bel Air Mall. In addition, the grand prize winner’s school or community organization will also receive a gift certificate. All entries will be on display at Bel Air Mall, June 11-25 and winning artwork will be displayed in the lobby of MAWSS’ Catherine Street location.

Official rules and entry forms can be picked up at the following locations: the Customer Service Center at Bel Air Mall, MAWSS’ Customer Service Center at 207 N. Catherine St., MAWSS’ Park Forest location at 4725 Moffett Rd., or by visiting “What’s New at MAWSS” at www.mawss.com to download and print your own entry form.
