“Don’t Let a Tick Make You Sick” Poster Contest
Deadline to Enter: April 30
Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Maine CDC) announces the 2025 Lyme Disease Awareness Month poster contest. This contest is for Maine students in grades K-8th to raise awareness of tickborne disease prevention. The 2025 Lyme Disease Awareness Month poster contest theme is “Don’t Let a Tick Make You Sick.” Maine CDC encourages students to take tick prevention seriously. Posters should illustrate at least one of the four approaches to personal prevention:
Use caution in tick-infested areas
Use an EPA-approved repellent
Wear protective clothing
Perform daily tick checks both by sight and by touch
Maine CDC will choose one winner each from grades K-1st, 2nd-3rd, 4th-5th, and 6th-8th. One winning poster will become Maine CDC’s 2025 Lyme Disease Awareness poster. Visit Maine CDC’s Lyme Disease Awareness Month website for more information, contest rules, and consent forms. All
posters must have a signed parent/guardian consent form. Maine CDC created free downloadable school
curriculum materials for students in 3rd-8th grades to learn about ticks. Parents and youth leaders can also find tickborne disease posters, brochures, and other resources to download and
order here.
