The Junior Duck Stamp art competition is just around the corner, and we coordinate the Idaho contest. The purpose of this program is to teach conservation through the arts; students are invited to explore the natural world and learn more about waterfowl identification and wetland habitat by creating their very own art depicting a duck, goose, or swan. Ribbons will be awarded for 25 artists in each age category (Kindergarten-3rd grade, grades 4-6, grades 7-9, grades 10-12). Basic contest guidelines are listed below. For more details, please see contest information or respond to this email with any questions!  

Basic contest guidelines: 

  • Students in kindergarten through 12th grade are eligible. 
  • Home school and independent entries are welcome.  
  • Entries must be original, hand-drawn creations and may not be traced or copied from photographs or other artists’ works.  
  • Must be a live portrayal of a native North American waterfowl – species are listed in the annual brochure.  
  • Art must be 9×12 inches, horizontal, no border around image, and less than 1/4” thick.  
  • May be multi-color, black and white, or a single color; rendered in ink, paint, pastel, crayon, or pencil. Techniques may include scratching board, airbrush, linoleum printing, paper collage, dry brush, crosshatch, pointillism, etc.  
  • No lettering, words, signatures, or initials on the design. 
  • No photography or computer-generated art will be accepted. 
  • Entries should not be matted or framed. 
  • Tape your signed, completed entry form (English/Spanish) to the back of your entry before mailing.

Thank you, ICFL!

We are very pleased to announce that the Cascade Public Library was awarded the $500,000 Facilities Improvement Grant by the Idaho Commission For Libraries. This grant was very competitive, so we feel extremely fortunate to have been chosen. The application was extensive and we couldn’t have done it without your help. 

We would like to thank Grant Writer Leslie Freeman, Mayor Judy Nissula, City Inspector Darryl Sheppard, Kittric Guest, Performance Engineers and Dalrymple Construction for helping us put our application together. We would also like to thank the Library Expansion Committee, Board of Trustees, City Hall, City Council, Friends of the Cascade Library, Cascade School District, Cascade Afterschool Program, Cascade Medical Center, University of Idaho Extension, Cascade Cultural Art Center, Chamber of Commerce, Cascade Aquatic and Recreation Center, Western Central Mountains Economic Development Council, American Legion, Leisure Time RV Park, Umpqua Bank, and Stibnite Foundation for their unwavering support. 

This construction project is not just a library expansion, but it is also a vision of what is to come for Cascade and what is possible when we work together.  

On behalf of the Cascade Library, thank you!
