Molokai Water Fest

Text Box: The Molokai Water Fest held its first biannual event in September 2002. This half-day event focused on fresh water education for grades 5 and 6 of the DOE system. The students were able to attend a series of 20-minute interactive hands-on workshops put on by various state, county, and private agencies. Some of the activities included making an aquifer, water painting, playing games, stepping in a lo'i, and handling native animals from the wetlands and streams. Prior to the event, teachers were given books, magazines, and videos on water conservation and ecology to use in the classroom to enhance their current curriculum. It also taught the students native life forms found in our streams and rivers. The event was made possible through a Department of Health grant that CTAHR received.
