The Envirothon is Tuesday

April
27

Students from seven Westchester schools will compete Tuesday in the Hudson Valley Regional Envirothon.

What’s an envirothon, you ask? Well, county officials tell us, “The event is organized around five areas: soils, aquatics, forestry, wildlife and a current environmental issue. The winning team from each participating county is eligible to go on to the NYS Envirothon at SUNY Cobleskill on May 21-22.”

The event will be held at the Sharpe Reservation in Fishkill. There are 11 Westchester teams in total, from the following high schools: Hastings, John Jay (Katonah-Lewisboro), Ossining, Putnam-Northern Westchester BOCES, Scarsdale, Walter Panas (Lakeland), and Yorktown.

The event is supported by the Westchester County Soil and Water Conservation District with assistance from the county Department of Planning.
