Big Splash Water Festival
Jeffers Foundation made its first grant to the Five Hawks Elementary School in Prior Lake , MN. The school had been planning a water festival and came up short of cash to pull everything together. Jeffers offered to cover the shortfall and the Big Splash Water Festival became a reality. It represents in a very real way what Jeffers Foundation wishes to accomplish, education of elementary age children in sound principles of environmental stewardship. Water festivals are a great vehicle for bringing important environmental concepts home to kids and for productive partnerships.
