DRBC Staff Presents at PDE's Urban Waters Educators Watershed Workshop

In July 2013, the Partnership for the Delaware Estuary (PDE) held two watershed workshops for educators: Estuary Explorers from July 10-12 and Urban Waters from July 16-18. These workshops offered attendees free educational and classroom materials, included field trips at locations around the Delaware Estuary (Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania), and, upon completion of each workshop, participants received approximately 15 continuing professional education hours/professional development hours.

DRBC's Communications Manager Clarke Rupert presented to the Urban Waters workshop on Tuesday, July 16, 2103 at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education in Philadelphia, Pa. This workshop included 12 teachers, who represented public and private schools from Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Mr. Rupert gave an overview of the Delaware River Basin and also an overview of the commission and its programs.
