Then we'll talk about the return of the St. Lucie Water Champions program.
Lauren Jenkins is here to tell us about it. She’s the Environmental Education Coordinator for the Oxbow Eco-Center which has revived this program to help educate all the new, and long time, St. Lucie County residents about the importance, and complex role, that water plays in our region.
