Engaging youth in conservation education is important to our mission. The State Fish Art
Contest, a cooperative effort between Nebraska Game and Parks Commission and Wildlife
Forever, invited students across Nebraska to submit artwork in a national contest. Students from
across the state entered 26 pieces of art representing an Official Fish of a State or Territory of the
United States. The top three pieces from four grade categories were chosen by vote of Game and
Parks staff. These 12 pieces of art were forwarded to Wildlife Forever to be judged in a national
competition. The winners received a certificate recognizing their achievement, and all participants
were awarded a copy of Nebraska Game and Parks "Going Fishing" book.
