|
The Washburn Rural High School Environmental Club sent two teams to compete in the April 11, 2018 Regional Envirothon at Red Rock Ranch in Soldier, Kansas. The team that placed 8th in 2017, placed 3rd in 2018.
Thank you to their teacher, Allison Bunck! Thanks to their planning committee, Envirothon in Kansas runs like a well-oiled machine: https://kacdnet.org/kansas-environthon/.
