June 13th 4H Water Ambassador Visit

Established in 2017, the Texas 4-H Water Ambassadors Program aims to educate youth about the state’s water resources. Each spring, high school students from across Texas are chosen to participate in a summer 4-H2O Leadership Academy tour. During this immersive experience, students journey throughout Texas to discover how water is collected, transported, treated, conserved, and managed to fulfill the needs of both our economy and communities. One of the tour’s highlights is the North Plains GCD Water Conservation Center, where students gain insights into various farming practices, the Ogallala Aquifer, the District, and the vital role agriculture plays in the Panhandle, among many other topics.
