Science Saturday: Rio de Flag

Join Willow Bend and Friends of the Rio de Flag for an event that’s all about the Rio!

Event starts at 9am with a 2 mile guided tour of the Rio from Willow Bend to the Wetlands and back.

Then, from 10am-1pm hands on activities at Willow Bend including creating your own watershed, water quality sampling, interactive Rio map, pond life under a microscope, 3D terrain model, and a family friendly Rio clean up from 10:30-11:30 am.

During the spring semester Willow Bend has been delivering place based Rio De Flag focused programs to various FUSD schools including Knoles, Kinsey, and Alpine Academy at MEMS as part of our Flagstaff Community Foundation grant. This event will be a celebration of the students’ hard work and an opportunity to showcase what they have experienced and learned.
