Poster & Essay Contest
For more than 15 years, KLB organized a poster & essay contest with elementary students around Loudoun County, as well as private and home-based schools. The posters and essays contained the themes of reducing, reusing, recycling, ecology, litter clean-up, composting & beautification.You can see all the beautiful art created by these talented kids in the links below.
Starting next year, we are planning on converting this contest to a Video contest. Stay tuned for details by the end of the year!
