Thank you to those who joined us at the 26th annual Children's Water Education Festival. The Orange County Water District (OCWD), National Water Research Institute and the Orange County Water District Groundwater Guardian Team are proud to present this award-winning event.

The Festival presents a unique opportunity to educate third, fourth and fifth grade students about local water issues and the environment and helps them understand how they can protect water supplies and their environment. Since its inception, more than 142,000 Orange County students have experienced the Festival and all it has to offer.
