Clemson extension schedules 4-H20 classroom at Lake Keowee

WALHALLA — In partnership with the Friends of Lake Keowee Society, the Clemson extension office in Oconee County is offering a water resources program to youths ages 9-13.  

The week-long program will be from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. July 20-24 at High Falls County Park. The cost is $60, which includes a notebook, T-shirt, materials, snacks and a hot dog lunch on the final day.

Pontoon boats will serve as transportation as participants take an in-depth look at Lake Keowee, which acts as the “classroom” for this program. The purpose of this event is to educate youths about water quality, conservation and stewardship through a mixture of hands-on activities.  

For more information or to obtain registration information, contact Jason Caudill at the Oconee County Extension Office at 864-638-5889, ext. 116.  

Should anyone require special accommodations due to a disability, please notify our office at least 10 days prior to the event.  

The Clemson University Cooperative Extension Service offers its programs people of all ages, regardless of race, color, gender, religion, national origin, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, marital or family status, and is an equal opportunity employer.
