RUN WATER RUN
Join us as we explore how water is both a constructive and a destructive force in shaping land forms in Georgia, the US, and the Earth in general. Where is water located on, in, or around our planet? Students will see the impact of water in carving out the Grand Canyon and also view changes in the geology of Georgia through millennia, from the formation of the Appalachian Mountains to barrier islands.
