2023 Yampa Youth Water Festival

In September 2023, the Upper Yampa Water Conservancy District hosted nearly 400 5th grade students from Routt and Moffat counties for a day of learning about water science, safety, and conservation.

A Day of High-Quality H2O Fun!

From engaging activities like an interactive diorama about water usage around the city to understanding water propulsion with shooting a bottle rocket off of a bike pump, it was a day full of learning about water on all levels.

The Upper Yampa Water Conservancy District was joined by various entities like the Friends of the Yampa, Colorado Fish & Game, the Forest Service and multiple others to bring a unique learning experience, and multiple perspectives to the water festival.
