From the Minnesota Department of Health:

Do you know any school-age kids in Minnesota who are creative and like to color, draw, or design? The Minnesota Department of Health and Bell Museum are hosting the 3rd annual Tickborne Disease Prevention Poster Contest for school-age kids! This is a great opportunity for you to help us promote healthy outdoor activities, tick bite prevention, and creative learning. To help educate and inspire students, please encourage them to watch our new animated tick video series, All About Ticks, or check out our other educational materials (including posters that were created from previous winners) on our website.

Winners will receive admission tickets and other fun prizes from the Bell Museum! Minnesota residents 18 years of age and younger are eligible to participate. Posters can be mailed in using the attached submission form or submitted online using the link below. Please note that parental signature is required with either method. The deadline for submissions is Friday May 10th, 2019 so don’t wait!
