California Envirothon Teams Sought by 12/15/11

MEEC is a proud sponsor of the California Envirothon, an "environmental decathlon" of sorts for high school students, which will be held 25-27 April 2012 at the Wonder Valley Resort in Central California. "In an outdoor setting, students are challenged to work as a team while participating in hands-on training and testing focusing on environmental issues in the fields of aquatics, wildlife, soils, forestry, and a changing current issue.  The current (2012) competition topic is 'NonPoint Source Pollution/Low Impact Development.'"  Winners of the California competition will compete in the Canon National Envirothon in Pennsylvania.  http://www.envirothon.org/current-competition/231.html

MEEC will sponsor one team from the Antelope Valley area and one from the Victor Valley/Barstow/Morongo area.  Team sponsorship includes registration fees (including meals and lodging).  Applications/registration forms are due to MEEC by 12/15/11.  http://kerineal.com/caenvirothon.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/final2012.pdf
