Smokey Bear & Woodsy Owl Poster Contest
"Only You Can Prevent Wildfires"
Smokey Bear has had a long history serving as a national
symbol of wildfire prevention since 1944. Woodsy Owl came
onboard in 1977 with his slogan “Lend a Hand Care for the Land”
to encourage stewardship and conservation for our environment.
Together, these memorable icons remind us of our role in
protecting our natural resources, wildlife, and public lands.
Southern California Garden Club is one of many garden clubs
in California and in the nation who are involved in the poster
contest entry process. If you are a teacher and are interested in
