Subject: Teacher's workshop
Hi Everyone,
Just a quick update about the
IRL Envirothon and the teachers’ workshop:
First, we have decided on a
venue for this year’s competition. It will be held at F. Burton Smith Regional
Park in Cocoa, a 1300-acre park located on SR 520, about 3 miles west of I-95.
The website ( www.irlenvirothon.com
) has been updated with this information and a link to more info about the
park.
Next, our teacher’s workshop,
currently scheduled for October 27th, has been CANCELLED. We are
looking at options for either conducting a webinar, which will allow for more
folks to attend; or, doing workshops in each of our counties. More information
on that very soon as we nail down these details.
Participation and registration
forms will be available on the website beginning next week. One major change is
that we are forced to ask for a $10 registration fee from each team member ($50
per team). In this time of funding sources drying up, we will have to rely on
these funds to help cover some gaps in the estimated $9,000 cost of running the
event.
Finally, this year’s current issue is Nonpoint Source
Pollution/Low Impact Development. The website will be updated with a number of
resources in the next week, and here is a link to the topic on the Canon
Envirothon website: www.envirothon.org/current-competition/231.html
Please contact me should you have any questions about this
information, and look for additional info coming soon. Thanks for your patience
during this transition period!
