WESTMINSTER, COLO. - While water quality parameters and testing zebra mussel DNA are topics typically reserved for the laboratory, several fourth and fifth grade classes were given a chance to dive in at the 8th Annual Youth Water Festival on Tuesday, May 15, at Front Range Community College.
"They like science, but when you give them something to play with, it’s another level," said Denise Hosler, with Reclamation’s Mussel Lab in her fifth year of attendance. "The kids love it being hands on."
