“I attended the rain barrel workshop that was held this fall.  We’ve had our barrel up since and it’s worked fine.  We discovered that it only takes about 1 good rain to fill it.”–Cindy R., rain barrel participant, now with 2 barrels!

Winners of Our 2007 Rain Barrel Contest

Burris 8th graders were taught water resources by BSU students in Dr. Melissa Mitchell’s science education class and they painted 20 rain barrels.  Five rain barrels were chosen by Minnetrista for installation in the Children’s Garden, and congratulations to all of the participants.

Currently the Muncie Sanitary District is hosting rain barrel workshops.  For more information go to http://www.munciesanitary.org/
