The Envirothon is a great outdoor experience for high school students to learn about natural resources.  Emphasizing  teamwork for success, four to five students in a team will answer 25 questions from each of the five stations, which include Soils, Wildlife, Forestry, Aquatics and the Current Events Station. The Current Event theme this year is "Non-Point Source Pollution: It begins at home!”. The teams also give an oral presentation on the current events issue. 

     The Envirothon is a favorite activity each year for students in Northwest Minnesota. In our area, high school students from Roseau, Kittson, Marshall and Pennington Counties have participated.  

     The Envirothon for Roseau, Marshall, Kittson and Pennington Counties will be held at Lake Bronson State Park.  The winning team will advance to the State Envirothon that will be held in May at the Oliver Kelley Farm by Elk River, MN.

     The top three teams each receive a team trophy, and all team members and teacher receive medallions.  The winner of the oral presentation receives small individual trophies for each team member, and sweatshirts are given to team members and teachers of winning teams.  We provide juice, hot chocolate (weather dependent), coffee, muffins and donuts for everyone during registration. Lunch is also provided with a variety of sub sandwiches, cookies, chips, pop, water, and milk to choose.
