Lisbon High won 2012 Southwestern Regional Envirothon. 2013 Southwestern Regional will be at Camp William Hinds, Pine Tree Council Boy Scouts of America on May 15. Who will be our winner this year?
Envirothon is an Environmental program in a state and nationwide natural resource problem-solving competition for grades 9 - 12. Students compete outdoors in five natural resource areas: aquatics, forestry, soils, wildlife and a current national environmental issue. Regional and State competitions are held each spring and the top team qualifies for the Canon North American Envirothon finals--an opportunity to compete against teams from across the United States and Canada.
