Open to middle and high schoolers

Middle and high school students are invited to submit a 30- or 60-second public service announcement as part of a contest sponsored by the Tick Task Force of the Dutchess County Legislature.

The  live action or computer-animated video should explain how to remain tick free. Entries are due by March 10. See co.dutchess.ny.us.
