Summer reading program teaches children about water conservation

Did you know the water dinosaurs drank millions of years ago is the same water we use today?  

This summer, children ages 5 and up can learn how at Jurassic Drop: Adventures in Water Conservation, a free summer reading program by Gwinnett Water Resources and the Gwinnett County Public Library. 

Through hands-on activities and help from our Lanier-o-Saurus, children can learn about “water footprints”, how the water on Earth has been conserved for millions of years, and simple ways to conserve water at home and school.  

Programs will take place on Fridays at 11:00am throughout the summer, including:
