Kansas Water Photo Contest, Student Research Poster Submissions Being Accepted

Kansas is home to an abundance of beautiful natural resources and Kansans are encouraged to capture the most vital of these, water.

The Kansas Water Office (KWO) is accepting photos to be featured in conjunction with the 2022 Governor's Conference on the Future of Water in Kansas in November. The photos need to pertain to water or water use in Kansas. Examples include all bodies of water, irrigation, agriculture, recreation and fun, or other water infrastructure.

The top winning photo from each category will be featured at the 2022 Governor's Water Conference. The winners also will be featured in several of the KWO publications throughout the year. October 28 is the deadline to submit photos at kwo-info@kwo.ks.gov.

Student research will also continue to be a feature during the conference. Undergraduate and graduate students are invited to submit abstracts on their water-related research to be presented as posters. Any research that involves water quantity, quality or water education is eligible and cash awards are available. The submission deadline is November 2.

For more information about both contests as well as tentative conference agenda and speakers, please select Governor's Water Conference at kwo.ks.gov under the news and events section. Conference registration is required.
