Medford Water Commission - 12th Annual National Mayor's Challenge for Water Conservation, April 1-30

By saving water, our community saves energy, money, and valuable resources.

Medford is joining cities across the country for the 12th anniversary of the National Mayor’s Challenge for Water Conservation by asking residents to make a long-term commitment to manage water resources more wisely.

In return, residents can win $3,000 toward their home utility payments, water saving fixtures, and hundreds of other prizes! Plus, there is $25,000 in prizes for students at schools in our community.

Last year, mayors from 40 states encouraged residents to make hundreds of thousands of pledges to promote drought resiliency, protect watersheds, and ultimately reduce stress on aging water infrastructure. The Challenge goes beyond short term issues and looks at the ways our water use will affect the future of our communities — from how we manage our coasts, lakes, and rivers to reducing polluted runoff.

The 12th Anniversary National Mayor’s Challenge for Water Conservation is presented by the Wyland Foundation in association with EPA WaterSense, The Toro Company, National League of Cities, and Zenni Optical.

Let’s show the other cities around the nation how Medford takes care of our planet! It's free, and only takes a minute. Plan to make the pledge April 1-30 at mywaterpledge.com.
