2011 NACD Stewardship and Poster Contest: Celebrating the UN International Year of Forests

Thank you for your interest in the NACD 2011 Poster Contest. This will be a special year for NACD. We are collaborating with the USDA-Forest Service and American Forest Foundation/Project Learning Tree for this special 2011 Forestry Theme.

We are awaiting UN approval to use their logo on our products. The logo is outstanding and will fit well with our education material. The text is getting ready to be sent out for review and we hope to have the material out sometime between October 1, 2010 and November 1, 2010.

This year's theme is "Forests for People: More than you can imagine!" We want to connect people to the forest whether they have one in their back yard, in their state or no forests at all. We all have a connection to the trees in the forest that provide wood for our homes, furniture or cork for the center of our baseballs. We can thank trees that help clean the air we breathe. Stay tuned for lots of exciting education materials and other resources to help you celebrate the 2011 International Year of Forests.
