Big Watershed Game Update

Last month, while snow was falling and the ground was covered in ice, we were dreaming of liquid water -- lakes, creeks, watersheds. We spent some time workshoping our Big Watershed Game ideas with Ken Eklund and the  Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. In order to further develop our ideas for the game, we invited local watershed experts, game designers, and experiential educators to a couple feedback sessions to give us their thoughts on what an epic, fun, landscape-based watershed game should look like. We had excellent discussions and came away with some new ideas for what the game will look like.
 
Stay tuned for more information on the Big Watershed Game, coming to a watershed near you this September. If you are between the ages of 18 and 35 and are interested in gaming, we'd like your feedback. Email ady@northern.lights.mn to receive information about the next feedback session.
