The La Vergne Stormwater Department is looking for help from local kids ahead of this year's annual stream clean-up.
They're asking 4th and 5th graders to help design a poster around the theme "Keep La Vergne Beautiful" and should reflect the need to keep our streams, creeks, channels, and lakes clean.
All submissions must be turned into a school teacher or the La Vergne Public Library at 5063 Murfreesboro Road by March 22nd. Submissions will be judged by Stormwater Department Staff.
Winners will be announced on Monday, April 2nd. The top three posters will be displayed in the La Vergne Library until May 5th. The winning poster will be used for advertisement of the La Vergne annual stream clean-up event on May 5th.
