All Missouri students in the fifth grade were eligible to participate. Winners were chosen by a vote of Public Drinking Water Branch staff and are not selected solely on artistic ability, but also on how well they convey a message of celebrating tap water and demostrating what tap water can do for us. We have selected our 2013 winners!
