WINDSOR MATTERS

Mayor Rennemeyer Invites Windsor Residents to Participate in the Mayor's Waterwise Challenge

For the entire month of April, explore Windsor’s parks and facilities in a scavenger hunt to find pictures of the Windsor water droplet hidden in 21 different locations around town as a part of the Mayor’s Waterwise Challenge, championed by Windsor Mayor Paul Rennemeyer.

Starting April 1, residents will have the opportunity to search for the Windsor water droplet tucked away in various locations in our community that practice waterwise initiatives. But keep your eyes peeled! There are three special gold, silver, and bronze droplets that are your ticket to one of our three grand prizes. The contest runs from April 1 through 30.

• The first Windsor resident to find the gold Windsor water droplet will win a smart sprinkler controller with free installation from Windsor’s Water Conservation Technician.

• The first Windsor resident to find the silver Windsor water droplet will win a smart sprinkler controller, but no installation.

• The first Windsor resident to find the bronze Windsor water droplet will win an ultra-high efficient toilet.

• The Windsor resident to find the most blue Windsor water droplets will win a reusable water conservation bag full of gifts.

“The goal of this contest is to raise

awareness about water conservation and to make it a part of our everyday life,” says Rennemeyer. “Reducing the amount of water you use lowers your utility bill and preserves a limited resource for generations to come. By participating and learning about how Windsor is taking steps to conserve water, we hope it inspires you to take those steps in your home or business as well.

The Town of Windsor has implemented a variety of water efficiency initiatives as a necessary practice to manage water resources for the future. As Northern Colorado continues to grow, the demand for a secure and resilient water supply grows as well. Water conservation is a vital part of assuring that water supply remains reliable.
