2016 Radon Poster Contest Open to Youth ages 9-14

Radon is a radioactive, colorless, odorless and tasteless gas that comes from the decay of uranium. It accumulates in homes and can cause lung cancer. This lung cancer risk can be reduced if the home with a radon problem is fixed. The only way to know if a home has a radon problem is to test.
Each year, the Nevada Radon Education Program (NREP) hosts a statewide Radon Poster Contest to help raise awareness during January’s National Radon Action Month.
The Nevada Radon Poster Contest is open to children aged 9-14 and offers cash prizes of $75 for the first place winner, $60 for second and $45 for third.

The Nevada Radon Poster Contest begins May 1, 2015 and ends Oct. 31, 2015. Please see the visit our website www.RadonNV.com for more information.
