UPPER SKAGIT RIVER BALD EAGLE FESTIVAL

“Wind, Water & Wisdom”

January 26th & 27th, 2008

Every year the people of the Upper Skagit welcome the magnificent Bald Eagles back to their winter-feeding grounds with a festival celebrating their return to this special habitat.  Many times teachers want to learn new information to add additional content to what they teach in the areas of watersheds, the life cycle of the salmon/eagles or ecosystems/habitat education.  This special in-service opportunity offers educators a chance to do just that by attending this informative and exciting weekend in at the end of January

Teachers can sign up and pay for 10  clock hours* by attending the Bald Eagle Festival and attending the numerous educational presentations and/or the field trips, as well as the other special events on Saturday and Sunday, January 26-27, 2008.  The clock hours are being arranged for by Puget Sound Energy in cooperation with Washington Science Teachers Association (WSTA).  The cost to teachers is just $15.00
