The Ohio Federation of Soil and Water Conservation District’s held their Annual State Envirothon on June 9-10 at Salt Fork State Park.

The top four scoring teams from each Area Envirothon were eligible to compete in the State Envirothon. This year, the Lynchburg-Clay Gold team once again successfully scored high enough in the Area 5 competition to receive the honor of competing in the state contest.

The Envirothon competition is designed to stimulate, reinforce and enhance interest in the environment and natural resources among high school students.

The competition tests students' knowledge of soils, forestry, wildlife, aquatic ecology and current environmental issues.

Each student on an Envirothon team is challenged to contribute his or her personal best but the score that counts at the end of an Envirothon is the team score. Once the results were tallied, the Lynchburg-Clay Gold team placed second in the overall State Competition.
