EAST WINDSOR – The township, through its Clean Communities Committee, is sponsoring a poster contest for all elementary school students to focus on Earth Day, Mayor Janice Mironov announced.
The theme of the poster is to promote any or all of the "4 R’s" of the township recycling program logo, which are:
* RECYCLE all items that can be recycled.
* REUSE other items rather than throw them out in the trash.
* REDUCE materials into their homes that then have to be disposed of.
* REBUY – i.e., buy goods that use recycled materials.
Winners from grades K-2 and winners from grades 3-5 will receive awards of a gift certificate to Barnes and Noble ($75, $50 and $25, respectively, for first, second and third place). The awards are being donated by Shiseido America.
Posters should be left by Friday, March 25, at your school’s administrative office or the East Windsor Municipal Building mayor’s office. Be certain that the back of each poster contains the student’s name, sddress, phone number, grade level and school attended.
Winners will be notified and awards made by Mayor Mironov at an Earth Day ceremony at the April 26 Township Council meeting. Winning posters will be displayed in the municipal building lobby during the month of May.
