The Groundwater Foundation presents its annual awards.
The SNWA 2003-2004 Youth Advisory Council chose to focus on new home development as a water issue pertinent to its community. The students created a concept for a “water-smart” home and partnered with Pulte Homes to create a model home in a residential community development showcasing water conservation through water-smart landscaping and efficient indoor features. The Youth Advisory Council created and displayed signage throughout the home showcasing the home's water saving features and created a handout describing the home's indoor water-saving features as well as identifying the desert plants used in the landscape. During the grand opening event, students were on hand to greet visitors, give tours and discuss the water saving features.
