Set for 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, the informational open house is not just for adults. Families are welcomed, with hands-on displays and activities tailored for kids. Experts from various levels of government—local, county, and state—will be at the ready, providing answers to pressing questions about water quality, development, and conservation, as reported by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.
This free event at 1800 Seckman Road in Imperial will feature elected officials at the pavilion. Attendees can learn about local watersheds and the streams and creeks in their community.
