    NW Minnesota Water Festival

    The NW Minnesota Water Festival is a two-day learning event held every September for 4th graders at the Warren and Fertile fairgrounds.  The festival teaches students about water resources and conservation practices.  Students learn about watersheds, water quality, ground water, flooding, aquatic invasive species, and aquatic life.  Eighteen schools (470 students) took part in this year's fun interactive event.
