Department of Land Management Conservation Awareness Poster Contest  

The Trempealeau County Department of Land Management held the Conservation Awareness Poster Contest on January 12^th, 2021 in the Courthouse, in Whitehall, WI.  The Poster Contest was sponsored by the Trempealeau County Environment and Land Use Committee.  Posters entries are split up into five age divisions - Primary, Elementary, Middle, Junior, and Senior. Trempealeau County’s poster entries this year were in the Middle, Junior, and Senior divisions. They were judged on their relevance to the theme “Healthy Forests = Healthy Communities.” Additional judging criteria included: Originality of design and concept, neatness, easy to read, if it conveys a positive conservation message, and if it shows a good understanding of the conservation concept.

Serving as judges were: Kathy Zeglin, Vice-Chair of the Trempealeau County Environment and Land Use Committee, Carol Bawek, Trempealeau County Health Department, and Michelle Rose, Trempealeau County UW-Extension.

22 poster entries were received this year. (See below list of winners…)
