Hi Ruth,

 

My name is Greg Kuether, and I am the Executive Assistant with the
Endangered Species Coalition.

 

I got you name from the North American Association for Environmental
Education website and would like to ask for your assistance is promoting the
2010 Endangered Species Day Art Contest.  The contest is organized by the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Endangered Species Coalition, the
Association of Zoos and Aquariums and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art/
University of New Orleans.

 

We are currently having our 2010 Endangered Species Art Contest.  The
contest is open to students in grades K through 12.  Judging will take place
in four categories, K-Grade 2, Grades 3-6, Grades 7-9, Grades 10-12, with
one national winner being chosen from the semi-finalists in these four
categories.






The nationwide Endangered Species Day Art contest provides students with an
opportunity to learn about endangered species and express their knowledge
and support through artwork.  The contest is organized by the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, the Endangered Species Coalition, the Association of Zoos
and Aquariums and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art/ University of New
Orleans.

Endangered Species Day is a celebration of our nation's wildlife and wild
places.  Started in 2006 by the United States Congress, Endangered Species
Day is an opportunity to learn about endangered species. The art contest is
an integral part of the fifth annual national Endangered Species Day, May
21, 2010.  The contest's winner will be honored with their name engraved on
a special trophy designed by a gifted young artist, Meredith Graf of New
Orleans, LA and will also be recognized at a reception in Washington, D.C.
in May, 2010.

I was wondering if it would be possible for your organization to provide a
link on your website or if there is a contact list that the information
could be sent to?  Also if your organization is on Facebook, Twitter or
other social network sites, would you be willing to send out an announcement
about the art contest?

 

The weblink for the contest is:

Any assistance with this would be great.  If you could let me know what you
could do I would greatly appreciate it.

 

Thanks.  Have a Great Day!

 

Greg Kuether
