Swift SWCD Water Festival
Each year the Swift Soil and Water Conservation District hosts a Groundwater Festival for Benson and KMS 5th and 6th Grade students.
2019 was the 14th Annual Water Festival and the Swift SWCD will once again be partnering with local and state entities to offer fun educational lessons and activities covering a variety of outdoor topics.
This year, our Water Festival will have 16 stations with topics including Animal Tracks, Forestry, Soils, Waterfowl, Wetlands, and groundwater. Our presenters are from Swift and Douglas SWCDs, Swift County Parks, Drainage and Wetlands, Land Stewardship Project, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, University of Minnesota Extension, USDA Agriculture Research Service, and Remarkable Reptiles.
We would also like to thank our sponsors for their generous donations to keep the Water Festival going strong!
