The Children’s Water Festival ( www.metrocwf.org) is an annual celebration of water’s central role in our lives. We are looking for volunteers to help us and our partners engage over 1300 students in hands-on activities about water including water quality indicators, wetlands, and where our water goes when it is flushed down the toilet. Many volunteer positions are available with the NPS and partner organizations throughout the day.
The Mississippi National River and Recreation Area needs assistance at our station interpreting the "Mystery of the Disappearing Waterfall".
