Walnut Valley Water District (WVWD) is proud to announce that at the CAPIO STAR Awards on October 2, 2025, the District earned top honors in two competitive categories, underscoring its commitment to creativity, community engagement and clear public communication.

“We’re so proud of our team!” said Stephanie Fu, Senior External Affairs and Sustainability Coordinator at Walnut Valley Water District. “These awards reflect our ongoing efforts to keep the community informed, engaged, and – even when serious water‑topics are involved—having a little fun along the way.”

The “Did  You  Know?” video series delivers short, dynamic insights into water conservation, infrastructure and everyday water savings—tailored for social‑media audiences. Meanwhile, the “WATER U TRUST” music video brought an innovative and upbeat tone to communicating the value of water, trust in service, and community connection.

The CAPIO STAR Awards, sponsored by the California Association of Public Information Officials (CAPIO), recognize excellence in governmental communications across a wide range of formats and platforms, including video programming and social‑media campaigns. These wins highlight WVWD’s emphasis on transparent, relatable messaging and creative outreach.
