The Silliman Activity & Family Aquatic Center invited artists ages 4-12 to participate and celebrate Earth and Nature Week during the summer. Of the 21 entrants, four were selected and received a free 2013 Season Pass plus having their artwork displayed at the center. First Place: Selah Fay (11) who described her poster as, "When we recycle plastic bags, can, bottles and other items, we help the earth be a cleaner and better place for us and the animals." Second Place: Anwesha Ghosh (6) with a poster of three different colors of bins so people know what to recycle, where to recycle and why it is important to recycle. Third Place: Isabelle Farias (11) with a poster that shows how the Earth gets energy to us by recycling. The poster shows the earth, moon and stars exercising! Honorable Mention: Laura Wong (11) with a poster that shows her and her sister putting recyclable trash in the recycling bin; the birds and butterflies in the background are happy that their environment is being kept clean.
