Contest!  This initiative, organized by RRFB Nova Scotia, offers creative
contests for students in grades P-12, with over $40,000 in cash, prizes, and
scholarships.  Students will work on various tasks, depending on their
grade level.  Students may be asked to design a t-shirt, create an
advertisement, write a research essay, and more.  The one thing all these
contests share is a focus on reducing waste and improving the environment! <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
