The Louis Robidoux Parkland & Pecan Grove is hosting our second annual Fall Festival Event! As part of the celebration, we are hosting a poster contest for all elementary-level students in the Jurupa Unified School District.

About

This district-wide poster contest is an opportunity for your students to creatively express the benefits of nature and outdoor activities. By focusing on the natural beauty and restoration of the Louis Robidoux Parkland and Pecan Grove, students will design posters that highlight how spending time outdoors leads to a healthier community. The contest aims to inspire creativity, promote environmental awareness, and encourage everyone to "Keep it Healthy, Keep it Wild." You can use this project to help students connect with their environment while reinforcing lessons in health, science, and art. It’s a fun, educational experience that could earn your students recognition and prizes at the 2024 Fall Festival!

Theme

Keep it Healthy, Keep it Wild! Students are encouraged to submit a poster that illustrates one or more ideas for keeping our bodies and our planet healthy by spending time outside, playing in and caring for our environment.
