Maryland Envirothon
"The Envirothon is a fun and exciting way for high school students in grades 9-12 to learn about the natural world around us. Envirothon teams are made up of 5 students who work together to study Maryland's natural resources over the course of the school year. All topics are very hands-on and include practical skills and the trainings taught by experts in each field."
