2011 Operation Water Festivals


Each year nearly 2,000 BVSD and SVVSD 4th and 5th grade students attend one of two Water Festivals held in Boulder County. Operation Water Festival is a fun, hands-on way for students to discover how drinking water is made, learn how to protect and conserve our water, experience the history, geology, geography and science of water, and encounter the diverse plants and animals that rely on water for survival.
