EPA SunWise Poster Contest Now Accepting Entries
The 2010 SunWise with SHADE poster contest is a joint effort by the U.S. Environmental Protecton Agency's SunWise program to protect children from excessive sun exposure which can lead to skin cancer, cataract/eye damage, and immune system suppression.

The deadline for entries is April 7.

To enter, students must submit hand-drawn posters on 8.5 x 11 inch paper, be original, creative, show ways to prevent skin cancer and raise sun safety awareness, and must be attached to an official entry form.

Besides other prizes, the national winner in the 4th-8th grade category will receive a family trip to Disney World and a WeatherBug Tracking Station for his/her school with lifetime access to WeatherBug Achieve.

Additional information is available on EPA's SunWise program webpage.
