"Clean and Green" jingle and slogan design competitions
Country park lovers and members of the community with innovative ideas are invited to join two prize-carrying competitions now being held to mark this year's "Clean and Green" Scheme.
They are welcome to join either or both of the competitions. the jingle design contest and the slogan creation contest, which form part of the many activities for this year's scheme.
An Agriculture and Fisheries Department's (AFD) spokesman said the main objective of these contests was to arouse participants' awareness on the importance of keeping the country parks clean and green.
On the jingle design contest, the spokesman pointed out that it could be entered in individuals or groups.
"Each entrant should submit a one-minute recording tape for a jingle promoting the clean and green message in country parks. The jingle can be either in Cantonese or English, and must be interesting," he said.
The overall winner of this contest will be awarded with a $5,000 cash prize and a trophy.
Turning to the slogan creation competition, he said it would be open to individual entrants only. Each entry should comprise a 20-word or less slogan on keeping country parks clean.
The overall champion of this competition will get a $2,000 cash prize plus a trophy.
The champions and other winners of these two competitions will also be invited to join a fun day at a country park later in the year.
The deadline for the competitions is March 31, 1995.
All entries should be submitted to AFD's Conservation Education Unit at Room
321, Canton Road Government Offices, 393 Canton Road, Kowloon.
Enquiries on the competitions can also be directed to the Unit on tel 2733 2121.
