Graylin Karabasz Makes “Every Drop Count” in T-shirt design
AUBURN, Ala.– Graylin Karabasz of Ogletree Elementary School creates the winning
design in a t-shirt contest among fourth graders. Her design is the feature for the t-shirts
given to attendees of the Lee County Water Festival 2010 themed “Make Every Drop
Count.”
Natural Resources Conservation Service Opelika Field Office, along with the Lee
County Water Festival Leadership Committee and Community Partners are proud to
announce the contest winner of 2010.
Karabasz was awarded a $100 U.S. Savings Bond for her winning design that
reflected this year’s festival theme. Karabasz’s teacher, Sandy Williams, was also
recognized with a $100 gift certificate to be used for classroom supplies.
Second place winner in the contest, Marissa Lockhart, from Smith Station
Elementary School received a $75 U.S. Savings Bond. Lockhart’s teacher, Sharon
Owens, received a $75 gift certificate for class room supplies.
Third place winner, Madison Buckhannon, from Northside Elementary School
received a $50 U.S. Savings Bond. Her teacher Kristen Massey received a $50 gift
certificate for classroom supplies.
The Lee County Water Festival 2010 provides an interactive educational
experience for Lee County fourth-grade students. Participating in hands-on activities
encourages students to learn the role of surface and groundwater in the water cycle and
helps them understand the importance of water to all living creatures.
Lee County Water Festival seeks to instill a sense of environmental awareness
and stewardship ethic in young students and their families.
Lee County Soil and Water Conservation District believes resolving local water
quality problems begins with public education. Once younger generations are educated
on the importance of environmental responsibility through public events like the Lee
County Water Festival, the general public will have a comprehensive understanding of
environmental awareness over time.
Last year, over 1,800 fourth-grade students, teachers, parents and volunteers
attended the event. The Lee County Water Festival will be held this year on May 13- 14.
For additional information and/or to volunteer please contact Anne Miller, LCSWCD
District Administrative Coordinator at [email protected] or (334) 745-2511.
