World Water Day - March 22, 2025
The Lake Champlain Committee and our partners in the Champlain Basin Education Initiative (CBEI) host a World Water Day celebration annually to feature the efforts of teachers and students to improve waterways and understand the pollution issues they face. The event includes a contest where awards are given for several categories of creative arts. Entries can be as simple as photographs about raising salmon or trout in their classroom to poems or journal entries about water, or highlighting a community project focused on water. The involvement of art, music, history, science or technology teachers allows many forms of student work to be featured.
The student gallery will be featured March 22, 2025 at the World Water Day event at the Champlain Centre Mall in Plattsburgh, NY. All are welcome to attend!
