Camp Parks Asks Community For Mural Submissions

DUBLIN, CA — Camp Parks is holding a contest to find a mural that will adorn a side of the Parks Reserve Forces Training Area’s energy microgrid e-house, which measures 21 by 10 feet.

Once complete, the microgrid will ensure that the base is powered even when the power grid goes down. See here for more information.

To highlight this, Camp Parks is asking for mural designs that highlight the theme of energy resilience, in addition to themes of conservation, efficiency and climate change.

Finalists will be chosen from four categories: Elementary school (grades K-6), middle and high school (grades 7-12), adults (age 18+), and the Parks Reserve Forces Training Area personnel and families.

One winner will be chosen from all the finalists, and a Dublin graphic designer will transfer it onto the wall. Other submissions may be printed and temporarily displayed throughout the base.

Electronic files can be emailed to parksrfta@gmail.com until Nov. 30 at 11:59 p.m. PDT. Hard copy submissions can be dropped off at the designated dropbox located by the front desk inside the Parks Reserve Forces Training Area Visitor Control Center at Building 275 Camp Parks Blvd, Dublin from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Submissions should include the contestant’s name, age, school, phone number and email address.
