The entire month of April 2023, is devoted to Water Awareness Month in the State of Arizona!
There will be a special display at the Downtown Prescott Public Library in the Viewerie on the second floor. The presentation is a Timeline of the various water sources used by the City from 1864 until 2023. This display will be featured the entire month of April.
In addition, Facebook will feature a new water conservation tip for each day of the month, starting on April 1st and concluding on April 30th. See if you know all the ways to save water both indoors and out. Some of these tips may surprise you.
