Sample Activities

  • Offer a prize. People coming through fill out their name, address, and other pertinent information and place it in a container.
  • Offer free water and a place for tired fairgoers to sit. Place the seats and water near an educational display highlighting district activities, and fill the display area with lots of brochures!
  • Have a wooden board painted with fun wetlands creatures and cutout holes that people can peek through. Be sure to put the your organization's name on it!
  • Offer face painting with a soil/water theme. Be sure to purchase an allergy free paint kit.
  • Display water models if it is a secure site.
