Organizers wit the sev-enth annual Missouri River Watershed School Festival (MRWSF) are looking for vol-unteers. The event is set for Friday, May 1, at Riverside Park, in Yankton.

The MRWSF is an educational event open to students in grades 7-11. MRWSF provides hands-on learning opportunities with fast-paced presentations focusing on: changes in the river’s ecosystem, endan-gered and invasive species, water cycles, boating safety, human impacts on and stewardship of the river plus more. Attached is a list of presentations that will be of-fered at the MRWSF. With the increased attendance, we are in need of more volunteers.

Students will attend seven of these opportunities, each one offering an enjoyable learning experience, which is where volunteers from your group come in.

The duties of the volun-teers is very simple, leading a group of students from one presentation to the next, ensuring groups are at the correct locations at the cor-rect times. Each volunteer is given a listing of the order in which that group is to follow, beginning with the � rst sta-tion to the last. Volunteers distribute snacks at the start of the fourth session.
