Act Now To Enter The SWA’s Coloring Contest

Coloring is cool these days — especially with a conservation message. The intricate America Recycles Day coloring sheet from the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County is an opportunity for county residents of all ages to show their creativity and win recognition and prizes courtesy of WFLX-TV Fox29. But artists will need to act quickly — the deadline to enter is Friday, Nov. 4.

To enter, pick up the official America Recycles Day coloring page at participating Whole Foods stores or download and print it from www.swa.org/519/Coloring-Contest. Entries will be judged by age group, including a category for adults, and the judges will be looking for creativity, originality, artistic skill and clarity. Artists may use whatever physical media they wish, except collage and computer-generated artwork.

Winners will be recognized at the Celebrate America Recycles Day event on Saturday, Nov. 19 at the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County’s Education Center, 6751 N. Jog Road, West Palm Beach. The complete rules, downloads and entry submission can be found on the web site.
