Project WHIRL is a teen environmental education program initiated by the Indian River Lakes Conservancy in 2019. The program aims to bring together environmentalists of different ages and experiences to learn from one another and to grow a community of people principled around protecting water quality, especially within the Indian River Lakes Watershed.

Our Summer 2025 Program is open for enrollment for ages 13-18. Registration ends on June 9, 2025.

During the program, students will explore the watershed and its geology, kayak on the local lakes, have hands-on experience studying water quality via natural indicators, and learn about invasive species like Eurasian Watermilfoil. Thanks to the generous community of business partners, the Sweetgrass Foundation, and our members, the program is free to participants.

Program Details:

• Open to students ages 13–18
• Free to participants
• Registration deadline: June 9, 2025
