Citrus County Utilities is seeking student participation in the 2023 “Drop Savers” poster contest. Students
in grades K-12 are encouraged to create a poster depicting a water-saving idea, in slogan form, drawing
form, or both.

In support of the U.S. EPA Water Sense program “Fix A Leak Week” initiative, the contest
helps raise awareness to the nearly one trillion gallons of water wasted from household leaks each year.

divisions. Posters will be judged by grade level as follows: Division 1 – kindergarten & first grades;
Division 2 – second & third grades; Division 3 – fourth & fifth grades; Division 4 – sixth, seventh & eighth
grades; Division 5 – ninth through twelfth grades. A fifty-dollar cash prize will be awarded to each division
winner’s teacher for art supplies, as well as a plaque displaying the winning artwork.
