Subject matter is chosen to supplement the delivery of Virginia SOLs while focusing on the Clinch River ecosystem. Most regional school systems approve the event as recertification credits for attending educators. We also have some great prizes to give away at the end of the day, including two new laptops equipped with Microsoft Office software.

Welcome and Keynote Address (8:30am): Terri Brown, Assistant Professor of Geology at UVA-Wise, will open the day with a keynote address on work to engage regional high school students with field-based instruction in Southwest Virginia.
