PA Envirothon Cancels 2020 Pennsylvania State Envirothon Competition; Working On Natural Challenges

The Pennsylvania Envirothon Board of Directors has made the difficult decision to cancel the State Competition scheduled to be held May 19-20 due to concerns about COVID-19.

This decision was not easy, said Envirothon PA, but it was made in the best interest of the health and safety of its participants-- students and teachers, volunteers, agency partners, sponsors, and many others.

Natural Challenges

PA Envirothon is working on some Natural Challenges to keep Envirothon teams engaged as we prepare for the 2021 Envirothon season.  

Watch the PA Envirothon website for details in the next several weeks.
