NoHaz, Oakland County’s consortium of 17 communities that provide residents with a safe, reliable and environmentally responsible way to dispose of household hazardous waste, sponsors a poster contest to educate and engage fourth- and fifth-grade students about the importance of those responsibilities.
Taking first place in the contest was Adelaide W., a fifth grader at Bailey Lake Elementary School.
The winners each receive a certificate and gift card, and their artwork will be featured on the 2022 NoHaz posters. Their teachers will receive a gift card for classroom supplies.
Finishing in second place was Raegan McGowan, a fourth grade student at Our Lady of the Lakes School, Waterford Township. Taking third place was Layla Hall, a fourth grade student from Harvey Swanson Elementary School in Brandon School District.
