Illinois American Water is inviting 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classrooms within the Company’s service area to participate in an “Imagine a Day Without Water” art contest. Winning artwork will be featured in a future bill insert and earn the student(s) classroom a $100 donation. The contest also helps to raise awareness about the value of water service.
Students are asked to draw a picture and write one sentence that describes what water service and a day without water means to them. Teachers can find instructions and materials online at www.illinoisamwater.com, in the “Learning Center” area of the site.
All entries should be sent to External Affairs Manager, Karen Cotton, at 7500 North Harker Drive, Peoria, Illinois 61615 by Oct. 27, 2015. Questions can be directed to karen.cotton@amwater.com.
The winners will be announced in November.
