| Outreach: Conservation Kids |
|
As part of our mission to spread awareness about water quality issues, Andrea and Cheyenne recently made a trip to Clayton Elementary where they gave an exciting aquifer presentation to several classes.
The kids loved the aquifer model and all went home with seeds and planting instrutions. See some pictures and an adorable thank-you letter here.
