Nassau County Executive Thomas R. Suozzi and the Nassau County Department of Public Works are looking for artists - ages 5 through 13 - to design a logo and slogan for the County's Storm Water Management Program. The logo and slogan will be used by the County on the Program's educational materials, which will help educate residents about the negative impact storm water runoff can have on the various streams, ponds and bays in and around the our local communities.

The contest is open to Nassau County children ages 5-13. All submissions must be the entrant's original artwork. No copies or tracings are permitted and the logo should be suitable for many formats and a slogan must be included. All contest submissions must be postmarked by July 30, 2005.

Winners will be announced in conjunction with the 20th Anniversary of the International Coastal Cleanup Day on September 17, 2005 and will be awarded a photo opportunity with County Executive Thomas R. Suozzi and recognition at a County Legislative session.

Contest rules, entry form, and information about storm water runoff are available by clicking on the links below. For additional information, please call Loretta Dionisio at 571-6850 or send an e-mail to Stormwater@mail.nassaucountyny.gov/agencies
