The Delaware River and Bay Authority's (DRBA) World Environment Day Festival was held at Veterans Memorial Park in New Castle, Del. This year was the festival's 10th anniversary, and DRBC staff was excited to return to this well-attended community festival to join the celebration. Staff enjoyed chatting with attendees about our water resources resilience work, and appreciated everyone who took the time to fill out our climate survey. Kudos to DRBA for 10 years of hosting this fun, family-friendly and educational event!
