Through discussion and demonstration (Enviroscape model), students learned about the value of water, point vs. nonpoint source, impacts of runoff, community partnerships/adaptive management, and an overview of the Silver Creek pilot project. Students will be talking to their teachers about how to participate in field work this spring.  Thank you to Becky and Bryanna for encouraging your students to participate in the Silver Creek student activities!
