Registration now open for Envirothon!
on Wednesday, March 6 at 8 AM at ELC
Envirothon is an environmental and natural resource education program and competition that encourages students to learn about aquatic ecology, forestry, soils and land use, wildlife, and current environmental issues.
Envirothon incorporates STEM principles, hands-on learning, and field experiences, where students can learn from natural resource professionals and apply knowledge and skills.
The Indian River Lagoon Envirothon regional competition will take place Wednesday, March 6th beginning at 8:00 a.m. at the Environmental Learning Center (255 Live Oak Drive) in Vero Beach. However, demand is high and space is limited. Teams must register by Wednesday, February 14th.
The Indian River Lagoon Envirothon includes middle and high school teams from Brevard, Indian River, St. Lucie, Martin and Okeechobee counties. Winning teams will compete in
the statewide Florida Envirothon competition (in April), and winning teams from the state competitions will compete in the National Envirothon competition (in July).
Envirothon is the largest environmental competition in North America, involving over 500,000 high school students each year. The international competition hosts over 600 students, advisors, volunteers, and parents from the U.S. and nine Canadian provinces.
Envirothon teams can be established through public, private, and charter middle and high schools, youth clubs, and community groups. Learn more and register here.
