SAN RAMON, Calif. -
March 3, 2014 -
PRLog -- According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, a weekly federal tracking of drought, 37% of the lower 48 states are currently experiencing drought conditions. The severity of this year’s drought combined with recent incidents of water contamination due to pollution has sparked a renewed interest in alternative water sources such as rainwater.
In order to raise awareness of rainwater harvesting and promote the use of RainSaucers™
as a tool for collecting rain, RainSaucers Inc. announced today its 1st Annual "Saucers for Schools" Art Contest. All students in grades 3-5 in an Elementary School in the United States (and territories)
are eligible to win a 59"RainSaucer + DIY Standalone Rain Barrel Kit ($85 Value) for their School Garden or Campus. There will be only one winner per Grade as judged by the Management of RainSaucers Inc. Details of the art contest are available at
