Congratulations Water Journeys: Rain! Campers

Last week 24 campers, ages 6-11, completed a quest to find out where the rain in the camp drinking storm drain came from, and where it goes. The journey took them upstream to the roof of the LES camp building, and to a variety of land types on St. Paul Campus. The journey downstream, took them through campus underground infrastructure, to Sarita Wetland, and all the way to the Mississippi River. After returning, they helped protect water and provide habitat by planting native flowers in Sarita Wetland. Then we celebrated with an exhibit and open house featuring their own photographs and artwork. Look for more photos and a story map later this week!

Congratulations Water Journeys:Drink Campers!

Last week 26 campers, ages 6-11, completed a quest to find out where the water in the camp drinking fountain came from, and where it went. The journey took them upstream and downstream, finding the Mississippi River at both ends of the story. After returning, they helped protect water and provide habitat by planting native flowers in Sarita Wetland. Then we celebrated with an exhibit and open house featuring their own photographs and artwork. Look for more photos and a story map later this week!
