Marin Water’s student programs help youth and educators explore the essential role of water in our lives, community and environment. The Project WET Workshop: Climate Change and California Water is offered in collaboration with the California Department of Water Resource’s Climate Team and the Water Education Foundation’s California Project WET program. Content in these programs aligns with grade-specific themes such as adaptations in fourth grade and ecosystems in fifth grade, and draws from BEETLES and other local partners. Creek Notes provides periodic updates on fish happenings at Lagunitas Creek, and One Tam “Stories” offers detailed, in-depth stories about various plants and animals on the watershed. Library card holders can reserve and pick up a Park Pass for free entry and parking on the watershed, and individuals with a disability can request accommodations by contacting [email protected] at least two business days prior to the event, program or service.
