The Northwest Ohio Area 1 Envirothon returned to Allen County for a day of scientific challenges for high school students on Wednesday, April 24, at the shared Lima campus of The Ohio State University and Rhodes State College. 215 competitors were registered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Envirothon is a nationwide high school competition that takes place every year where students come together as school teams to compete in a scientific challenge testing their knowledge on four topics — soils, water, forestry, and a special topic that is different each year. The theme for this year\u2019s competition is \u201cRenewable Energy for a Sustainable Future\u201d and the 2024 scientific challenges are wildlife, forestry, aquatics, and soils. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scientific challenges took place on campus in locations in and around the Ohio State Lima regenerative farm and prairie, and in the Tecumseh Natural Area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Area 1 included schools from the following counties:  Allen, Auglaize, Crawford, Defiance, Fulton, Hancock, Hardin, Henry, Lucas, Marion, Morrow, Ottawa, Paulding, Putnam, Sandusky, Seneca, Van Wert, Williams, Wood and Wyandot.  2024 is the first year since the early 1990s that Allen County has hosted the Area 1 competition. The host agency is the Allen Soil and Water Conservation District.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
