Northern Colorado Water Conservancy Tour

One group role played “Women in Water” and the other group met with a woman on the staff who is a civil engineer. She did a wonderful math demonstration using sponges. “Some brains are soft and some are hard. The more questions you’re asked, the more your brain absorbs, the softer it gets.”

The Conservancy Gardens are open 24/7 and visitors can take a cell phone tour of them, which includes a replica of a water shed system.
