PCD is helping coordinate the regional
Envirothon competition this spring at
the Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National
Wildlife Refuge. The competition is for
high schoolers, grades 9-12 throughout
North America. Students form teams of
5 and put their wits to the test on topics
such as forestry, aquatic ecology, soil
and land use, wildlife, and agriculture.

Now in its 16th year, the Children’s Water Festival is scheduled for March 19, 2019 at the University of Puget Sound. PCD coordinates this annual event for local 5th graders, bringing together 700 students and 120 volunteers for this day of learning. Over 40 organizations contribute their time and energy to offer hands-on learning experiences for the students as they travel around the campus.

The school year may have ended in June, but our EE program kept quite busy during the summer with science and nature camps, visits to Boys and Girls Clubs, and planning for the upcoming school year.
