Have you ever wondered where the water comes from when you turn on your tap? Or, where it goes when you flush? MWEA is sending out a call to Michigan Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts to help us unravel the mystery through a new program called “FLUSH!” This unique program will answer those questions for Scouts and their parents by opening the critical drinking water and wastewater treatment facilities in local communities that are so important to maintaining fresh water resources. Scouts will be offered guided tours through water treatment plants in their area. During the tour, scouts and parents will have fun while learning about the science of water, water infrastructure, and the importance of this natural resource.
