MY DARWIN, MY WATER! WIN HOLIDAY CASH ON INSTAGRAM
Hands up if you love Darwin! If so, then chances are you care about its future. Part of that future is how we look after our water supply. Do you ever give it a second thought?
This summer, don’t get bored! Get onto Instagram and share your thoughts and perspectives on Darwin’s water. Not the type you swim or sail in, but the precious drinkable stuff that comes out of our dam to your taps – both indoors and outdoors. How do we use it? Why should we save it?
During 1 December 2015 and 29 February 2016, get on to Instagram, snap a pic and add a comment using the tag #mydarwinwater for your chance to win cash prizes.
We’re giving away $300 for the best overall photograph and comment and $300 for the people’s choice photograph and comment.
GET INSPIRED!
You’ll probably be instagramming over your Christmas break anyway, so get creative and show us how you or others go about saving Darwin’s precious water, what it means to you for Darwin’s future or your opinion on how we could do better. Don’t let there be any limits to your creativity! Here are some ideas to get you started (we’re sure you can do better than this list!):
Keeping cool under the sprinkler while the sprinkler waters the garden
Planting water efficient plants in the garden
Turning off the irrigation system after a big rain
At the shops buying a pool cover for the pool or irrigation equipment
Mum or Dad fixing a dripping tap
Irrigation system left on too long that water is running down the drain
Little brother leaving the tap on (or turning it off!) while cleaning his teeth
‘This’ is how much water we wasted by leaving the hose going all night!
My dog loves drinking the water that falls in a bucket in the shower
Photographs and comments must be tasteful and suitable for viewing by all ages – remember Instagram users range from little people through to senior citizens.
