2013 U.S. National Competition

Welcome to Portland, Oregon, located near the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers, known as one of the "greenest" cities in the world, and chosen as the site of the 2013 Stockholm Junior Water Prize national competition!

The 2013 competition is open to SJWP state winners only and will take place on June 14 and 15 at the Red Lion Hotel on the River.  Hosted by the Pacific Northwest Clean Water Association, this year's competition will feature two days of educational and entertaining events.  For more information contact Stevi Hunt-Cottrell at shunt-cottrell@wef.org.

A full Schedule of Events has been planned for students as they participate in two days of exciting events while mingling with other like-minded students and water quality professionals. 

Parents and Guests: 

While we know that parents and guests are excited for their student(s) and may plan on accompanying them to Portland, it is important to know that only students will be allowed to attend the scheduled events, with the exception of the judging which is open to the public; however, tickets may be purchased for the awards ceremony dinner.  Information regarding the dinner can be found in the information packet that will be sent to all state winners in early May. Simply complete the guest registration form and submit your payment to the address provided.  While the students are busy during the day, parents and guests may want to fill their time exploring all of the things to do in Portland! 

Competition is open to State winners only.
