ATTENTION:

CAMPBELL COUNTY EDUCATORS!

 

The CCCD would like to make available a watershed educational

activity, to you and your class. Our Enviroscape model is a plastic model

of a complete watershed. We are able to show erosion, point source pollution,

non-point source pollution, prevention measures and best management

practices for all. Additionally, the model allows students to become

familiar with watershed components and terminology. The activity can be

tailored to your individual class needs. It can be 15 minutes to 50 minutes.

Please call us at 682-1824 with any

questions or to schedule us to come to

your school soon.
