World Water Day

About this event

Come celebrate World Water Day March 22 from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. with students from C. A. Henning Elementary and Alton High school as they host educational booths about water. We invite you to:

• See how bugs are used to learn about stream health • Find out how changes in rivers and landscapes affect flooding • Map your watershed and understand our role in water pollution • View artwork and letters about water issues from students around the globe • Learn about the ways in which other countries access and treat their water

This is a free flow, open event. Visit as many or few of the water-related booths as you want and enjoy some FREE PIZZA! For each booth you visit, you'll receive a ticket for a free piece of pizza. (While supplies last.)
