The Piedmont Soil and Water Conservation District’s annual Youth Conservation Poster Contest theme for 2020 was, “Where Would We BEE Without Pollinators?” Each participant created a pollinator-related poster and learned about the importance of pollinators. More than 250 students participated this year.

All poster participants received a certificate and bookmark. All winners were awarded ribbons. Natasha Carricato, a fourth grader from Prince Edward County Public Schools, was the grand winner.

Her poster will be forwarded to the state contest occurring in October.

The owner of Red Door 104, Audrey Sullivan, was the judge of the poster contest.

Winners not pictured include: (K-first) Lilly Wells, Lane Fowlkes, Kanyon Webb, Riley Campbell, Evan Morgan; (second-third) Avalenn Moon, Tegan Campbell, Lillian Simms, Layla Eastwood, Isabella Patraca-Celestino; (fourth-fifth) Dominic Blakeney, Keshan Peaks and Kazu Dinmore.
