New Video Contest Targets Downtown Cigarette Litter
WILMINGTON - With the recent ban on smoking in restaurants and bars, it's no surprise that cigarette butts have become the #1 source of litter in downtown Wilmington. To help increase awareness of this issue, Wilmington Downtown, Inc. (WDI) is seeking entries for a video contest to help spread the word about the problem of cigarette litter on downtown streets - and help keep the city clean.
Participants are asked to submit a creative 30-second video which addresses the problem of cigarette litter and urge viewers to dispose of their cigarette-related trash in the proper place.
The winning entries will be aired on local TV.
To submit a video to be considered, all content must first be uploaded to YouTube. After the video has been posted, send an email with the link to
