The Kelsey Watershed District hosted their annual water festival on June 13 at Moose Park. It was a full day event with approximately 180 students in attendance from surrounding schools in the tri-community, participating in a series of interactive and educational stations.
“The Kelsey Watershed Water Festival is a group of volunteers that run stations, which are fun and educational in an environmental way to school kids,” said Kelsey Watershed District Manager Stephanie Jordan. “We invite grade 4s from all the surrounding schools to attend. They get to go to ten different stations where they learn about sturgeon; zebra mussels; tomato planting and gardening; wildlife and furs; bear safety; fishing techniques and real fishing on the Saskatchewan River; Ducks Unlimited; critter dipping; fire fighting and as well as play some fun games.
