Water Conservation Challenge

The City of St. Cloud, in partnership with Toho Water Authority, joins the nationwide challenge to be most “water wise,” starting on April 1.

Mayor Nathan Blackwell is joining mayors across the country in asking residents to make a long-term commitment to manage water resources more wisely by taking part in the annual Wyland National Mayor’s Challenge for Water Conservation. St. Cloud also is in a friendly competition with the City of Kissimmee for local bragging rights on which city can get the highest percentage of its residents to sign the online pledge.

The annual challenge, April 1- 30, is a non-profit national community service campaign that encourages leaders to inspire their residents to make a series of simple pledges at mywaterpledge.com to use water more efficiently, reduce pollution, and save energy.
