2) Sponsor Water 2012

Currently, Water 2012 has more than 200 collaborating institutions and partners reaching into every river basin in Colorado. Together, we are working to develop a full range of Water 2012 Activities with a goal to reach 500,000 Coloradans who will take part in one or more Water 2012 event. In addition, we are aiming to register 5,000 Colorado residents to receive communications on Colorado water.
