WISCONSIN DELLS – A Prescott School District student earned third place in a state conservation speaking contest in March.
Maeve Hasselquist, representing Pierce County, received third place in the elementary division of the 66th annual Conservation Awareness Poster and Speaking Contest with her speech on wild parsnip. The contest is hosted by the WI Land+Water Youth Education Committee. The finals took place March 1-3 at the Wisconsin Land and Water Conservation Association (WI Land+Water) 70th annual Conservation Conference in Wisconsin Dells.
The speaking contest featured students from across Wisconsin delivering speeches on important conservation topics, while the poster contest showcased posters with a conservation theme of “One Water.” Members of the Youth Education Committee and volunteers from county land conservation departments judged the speaking contest, and Association members and conference registrants voted on student posters
The Conservation Awareness Poster and Speaking contests are two of the many programs that the WI Land+Water Youth Education Committee coordinates to educate and inspire Wisconsin’s youth about the importance of stewardship and caring for our natural resources.
