The West Virginia Department of Agriculture would like to invite you to participate in the West Virginia Potomac Headwaters Educational Retreat. The event will focus on the Potomac River Basin. Sessions will include Project WET, Ag in the Classroom, an interpretive hike and a water quality survey. This year’s focus watershed is the South Branch of the Potomac River. Specific lessons focusing on science, history, language arts, geography and math will be shared with the group, tying West Virginia to the Chesapeake Bay.
The Educational Retreat is free to participants and includes curriculum, lodging, meals, and goodies. Educators will leave with numerous materials such as the Project WET Curriculum and Activity Guide, a binder full of various Ag in the Classroom curricula, specific South Branch of the Potomac River lessons, environmental conservation activities, and other various goodies and give-a-ways.
