Schuylkill Acts & Impacts is a 6-day watershed expedition along the 120-miles of the Schuylkill River, from its headwaters in the anthracite coal lands of Schuylkill County to its confluence with the Delaware River in Philadelphia. Twelve select students from all 5 counties in the watershed come together to experience first-hand the impact of land use on water quality through guided tours, fieldwork, water sampling and interactive presentations with policy makers and planners. Students camp out each night and need to bring a sleeping bag, but all other necessary gear, food and transportation including tents, kayaks, and life jackets will be provided. For more information, visit https://fairmountwaterworks.org/programs/summer/acts-and-impacts/

Students must be high school age and live or attend school in Schuylkill, Berks, Chester, Montgomery or Philadelphia counties. Selected students must participate in the entire program from Sunday, July 14, 2024 to Friday, July 19, 2024.

Applications are due by 4:00 pm on Friday March 22, 2024.
