Fourth grade classrooms and students are invited to participate in an art contest at Big South Fork National River & Recreation Area to earn their Every Kid Outdoors Pass.
As part of the commitment to protect our nation’s unique outdoor spaces and ensure that every American has the opportunity to visit and enjoy them, the Every Kid Outdoors initiative allows fourth graders nationwide to go to http://www.everykidoutdoors.gov and obtain a pass for free entry for them and their families to more than 2,000 federally managed lands and waters nationwide for an entire year.
Submit entries to the park by April 8, 2022, by mail or drop off at park headquarters at the address at the top of this news release. Every student entering the contest will receive an Every Kid Outdoors Pass. All artwork entered will be displayed on the park’s social media pages and at Bandy Creek Visitor Center during the 22nd annual Spring Planting and Music Festival on Saturday, April 30, 2022, where visitors may vote for “People’s Choice Awards."
