Water Education
Teach our children well Water is Western Colorado's most vital resource. By educating both children - and adults - about water, we can ensure that this and future generations will learn to respect the value of water and continue to use water carefully and wisely. Teachers can find information in this section of our website for K-12 lesson plans, experiments and other classroom materials to assist in teaching a water-oriented curriculum. Check out Water: The Key to Life in Western Colorado, a 24-minute video about the value and uses of water in Western Colorado produced by the Colorado River District and available at no cost.
New this year is the Colorado River District's first-ever Water Camp. It is set at the Keystone Science School in Summit County for Oct. 10-12. The cost is $25. It is open to West Slope high school students who want to learn first hand about water issues, watersheds and water management. -More information-
