The Watershed Game Workshop will include two sessions that will highlight the different versions of the Coast Model: the Local Leader Version (morning) and the Classroom Version (afternoon). The Classroom Version is designed for use with middle and high school students. The Local Leader Version is designed for use with groups of elected and appointed officials, local organizations, and/or community groups. Workshop participants will learn how the Watershed Game can be used to engage their audiences and help meet education, planning, or program objectives. Our goal is for workshop participants to leave ready to facilitate game play with their communities and/or classrooms.
