Each year the UWNRD hosts an educational day for fifth grade students in the district. The festival will be held on April 27th for 2010. Students have the opportunity to visit different presenters who set up hands-on stations to teach about conservation.
The 2009 Festival was on April 21st and featured maze where students "picked up" water contamination, bubbles as big as a kiddie pool and weed-eating goats used by the organization PRIDE. They also learned about pollution, ground water, soil and tree facts.
