5th Grade Feld Days

About 1,200 Vigo County 5th grade students learn about polluted runoff at the SWCD's annual 5th grade field day at the Vigo County Fairgrounds. A rainfall simulator is used to demonstrate the runoff potential of a variety of substrates: bare soil, soil with some ground cover, filter strips, and urbanized areas.

Earth Day Activities

Our MS4 group participates in Earth Day Festivities at St. Mary of the Woods College each year. Our "Don't Trash the Bash" tee-shirt coloring event was a huge hit at Earth Day 2009. To see photos from this event or to find out more information about this event, please visit Earth Day 2009.
