30TH WESTERN COLORADO
CHILDREN'S WATER FESTIVAL

The Western Colorado Children’s Water Festival has grown to be recognized as the largest of its kind in the State of Colorado. Each year, we bring fifth-graders from across the valley to our festival to educate and expose them to water-related industries and careers, all while demonstrating the importance of water and how water impacts everything.

WATER FESTIVAL CORE VALUES

HANDS-ON

Presentations are structured to the fifth-grade learning level, which allows the students to retain the information in a hands on and educational manner. We work closely with school districts, private schools, and home schools to match the festival experience with their water curriculum.

WATER INDUSTRY

Students have an opportunity to learn about the variety of water-related career opportunities, as well as water rights, water in the human body, water conservation, water pollution, water safety, water species, water treatment,  the dependency of water in a variety of industries, and much more.

HIGHER EDUCATION

For many students, the festival gives them the opportunity to interact closely with professionals who have received a higher education or post-secondary training.

WE'VE BEEN AT IT FOR 30 YEARS

A STAPLE COMMUNITY EVENT

Planning the largest children's water festival in Colorado is no small feat—it's a year-round process that brings together a dedicated group of stakeholders committed to educating and inspiring the next generation. From local community sponsors to passionate presenters, the festival is made possible by the countless hours of preparation, planning, and support from all involved.

Behind the scenes, stakeholders ensure the event runs smoothly throughout the year, monitoring the pulse of the festival and refining every detail. It takes generous community sponsors who believe in the power of environmental education and committed presenters who go above and beyond, volunteering time, resources, and staff to spend two full days engaging with fifth-grade students. 

Join us in making a splash for the future!
