HARRISBURG -- Officials from the departments of Health, Education and Conservation and Natural Resources encourage Pennsylvanians to participate in the 2022 Lyme Art Contest to promote awareness of the prevalence of ticks and the types of diseases they carry.
The art contest is open to children in first through sixth grade. Entries must be received by 5 p.m., March 11. Contest materials can be found on the Department of Health's website.
The Lyme Art Contest was created in 2019 to educate children, scout troops, youth community programs and their peers about where ticks are found and how to prevent encountering ticks in their habitat.
This year's finalists will be notified by mail and will be invited to an award ceremony in May 2022.
