Chatham-Kent & Lambton Children's Water Festival Annual Children's Water Festival form Chatham-Kent & Lambton held at the CM Wilson Conservation Area in early October. There is no public access.

The Chatham-Kent & Lambton Children's Water Festival has been celebrated annually during the fifth week of the grade school year since it began in 2007. We will be celebrating our 11 th Annual Festival this coming October where we expect that up to 2000 elementary students will attend. Unless you had a child in grades four/five, this amazing educational experience could have escaped your notice as it's reserved for schools and volunteers. Students attend one of the three full day sessions to participate in 42 activity centres which not only address water conservation, protection, and science, but how water was handled in the 1800's. Students are encouraged to consider how much water they use when brushing their teeth or taking a shower. They investigate the impacts of pollution and contaminants. They marvel at the effort required to use water for laundry in 1840's, and for fire suppression by bucket brigade. What better age to embrace the value of water and one's impact upon it? Sponsors and Volunteers demonstrate commitment with grants, donations of cash and materials, and hours of guidance and preparation. In 2020, we are looking for volunteers, in-kind support and funding to make it another successful year.
