County of Linn

Wickiup Hill Learning Center, an agency of Linn County, Iowa, will develop, fabricate, and install an exhibit called Everyone Lives in a Watershed. This exhibition will center on improving watershed management through interactive displays, including a watershed table and a water droplet game. Education curriculum will be developed around the exhibition content for use with school visitors. Following interaction with the exhibit, watershed table, and associated educational materials, visitors will be able to define a watershed, understand that everyone lives in a watershed, identify good and bad watershed practices, and understand that there are actions everyone can take to better manage water and that poor watershed decisions result in flooding and deteriorating water quality.
