The Port Washington Water District is excited to announce that its Do It For Port! water conservation campaign is back for spring and summer of 2023.
To kick off this year’s campaign, the Port Washington Water District invites Port Washington’s students to register for a tour of one of the district’s several water treatment facilities on May 9 at 4 p.m. Students and their parents will be able to get a firsthand look at everything that goes into pumping, treating and distributing millions of gallons of water every single day.
“We’re very excited to bring Do It For Port! back to our community this year, and there is no better way to start off than by getting our students involved,” said Commissioner Mindy Germain. “Our youth hold the keys to our water’s safety for future generations, making it crucial that we instill a passion and awareness for our natural environment within them early on. We look forward to showing them everything we do at the Port Washington Water District to keep our community’s water safe on a daily basis.”
This year’s American Water Works Association National Drinking Water Week runs from May 7-13, making this tour the perfect time for students to get interested in the functionality of water providers.
Students and parents can register for the tour at www.pwwd.org/conservation/do-it-for-port-educational-events. The address for the tour will be provided upon registration.
