Go Green to Keep Nashville Clean!
Metro Public Works, Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools and Red River Service Corporation are sponsoring the fourth annual Beautiful Nashville Art Contest for 3rd and 4th grade art students in Davidson County. The winning entry from each MNPS grade school will be featured on the side of a Red River waste collection truck to remind citizens of the importance of beautification and recycling.
The deadline to enter the contest is Wednesday, October 28, 2009.
Three grand prize winners will be chosen from all winning entries submitted from each school. The art departments of each grand prize winning contestant’s school will receive prize amounts of $1,500 (1st place), $1,000 (2nd place) and $500 (third place). In addition, winning artwork will be featured on a truck in the Nashville Gas Christmas Parade on Friday, December 4, 2009.
All winning entries will be displayed on Red River waste collection trucks from December 2009 through May 2010, and will be seen by more than 9,000 people each day while the trucks are on their routes.
