St. John students learn how to protect watershed

A group of St. John students learned more about watershed management with the launch of Coral Bay Community Council’s Ridge to Reef Watershed Education Program.

“This was our first Ridge to Reef Watershed Education Program session, and the content seemed to really resonate with the kids, and the variety of the activities helped us connect with varying ages and ability levels in the group,” CBCC Executive Director Monica Miller-Smith said in a press release. “By the end of the session, they all had ideas for how they could each individually protect their watershed. It was an awesome experience for CBCC and the kids.”

Miller-Smith and Communications Specialist Kaitlyn Cummings visited the Boys and Girls Club summer camp at the Julius E. Sprauve School on July 15 to share information on how to protect the local watershed.
