Denver Metro Water Festival
On May 21, 2014 in partnership with Denver Water and Suburban Providers of Denver Water, the One World One Water Center hosted over 800 sixth graders from the Denver Metro area on Auraria Campus for the very first Denver Metro Water Festival. The event was educational, exciting, and so much fun!

BIG thanks go out to the hundreds of volunteers and presenters at the festival. The day would not have been nearly as successful without all of their hard work! 
 
 
Planning for the 2015 Denver Metro Water Festival is already underway. Keep your eyes peeled for
future updates and how you can join the fun!

The Water Center at Colorado Mesa University and the One World One Water Center at MSU Denver invites water faculty and students to attend the first annual Colorado Student Water Field Conference. The goal of the conference is to introduce and engage students of Colorado water in water science. studies and issues around the state, in the field, not in the classroom. Each year a different university will host the conference. This year, the focus will be on how issues related to agricultural irrigation and environmental health come together in western Colorado's Grand Valley via field trips, tours and presentations by faculty, water professionals and students.

Cost to participants is $25 for the raft trip. Participants are responsible for travel to and from Grand Junction and breakfast on Saturday and Sunday. For more information contact Tom Cech
