Annual Poster & Video Contest


The County of Maui Department of Water Supply (DWS) offers an annual Poster & Video Contest open to currently enrolled Maui County students.

We are honored to be announce the 5th Annual Source Protection Video Contest, open to middle and high school students (Grades 6‐12).

However, due to COVID-19 Health Emergency the Department of Water Supply will not be holding its 2021 Water Conservation Poster Contest this year. We would like to thank our students, teachers and parents for their participation and support of our water conservation program and we look forward to restarting the contest in the future.

The 11th Annual Water Conservation Poster Contest was held in 2020 with the theme “OUR WATER, OUR FUTURE, CONSERVE IT”.   There were 726 entries by Maui County K-8 students that displayed thoughtful and creative representations of the importance of water conservation. Winners are featured in the 2021 DWS Water Conservation Calendar. 

The 4th Annual Source Protection Video Contest  was held in 2020, with the theme “OUR WATER, OUR FUTURE, PROTECT IT”.  There were 13 high-quality entries submitted from our Maui County 9th to 12th grade students.

The winners of both contests participated in an online ceremony with the Mayor Mike Victorino and received Certificates of Participation from the Director of Water Supply and Certificates of Recognition signed by the Mayor and the County Council and some great prizes!

DWS will continue to offer these contests to our bright Maui County students to foster awareness about the importance of water conservation, source protection and what we can all do to sustain our drinking water resources. We look forward to seeing students continue to participate and challenge themselves in our upcoming Poster & Video Contests to learn and teach our next generation about how important and indispensable water is to our lives. 

Lastly, the DWS Poster & Video Contests would not be possible without student participation. This continues to be possible by the tireless efforts from all of our Maui County teachers and parents who selflessly donate their valuable time to see their students and children succeed in everything they do. Our sincerest MAHALO for supporting the Department of Water Supply’s efforts to conserve and protect our water resources... because
