growing up here in california, water conservation was part of the day's learning. 30 years later, it's still part of the curriculum. however, we didn't have anything this cool to have us think about water conservation. all we had was the ricky the rambunctious raindrop coloring books and maybe a few stickers. now this is cool. the contest: submit a powerpoint preso, video or photo of what water conservation means to you.
the grand prize: a trip for the winner and their parents to the Tavarua Resort in Fiji for a surf vacation. Other prizes include “hang out” sessions with pro surfers Rob Machado and Rochelle Ballard, and skaters Danny Way, Bob Burnquist and Geoff Rowley.
the kids have so much more tools for creativity these days. if they're fortunate enough to have their own digital camera, a macbook, it's super easy to bang out a quick video and share it w/the world. this type of contest would never have been available to us back in the day. i all had to work with was construction paper, scissors and glue. i would've been stoked to have just built a california mission out of sugar cubes. this creative contest for a cause, sure beats a crummy coloring book.
