Depending on the region, homeowners can use 30-60% of their water outdoors. 50% of that water is wasted, in part due to overwatering. Before you water your grass this season:
🚰 Step on it. If the grass springs back, it doesn't need water.
🚰 Leave it long. Longer grass promotes a more drought-resistant lawn and fewer weeds.
🚰 Take a sprinkler break. Grass isn't really meant to be bright green in the summer.![]()

Youth Tour officially wrapped up Friday morning. We had a fun filled week in Washington, D.C. with our thirty-eight 2022 Youth Tour delegates (four from BREC). On the last day we visited the National Zoo (Pandas!!), the Natural History museum, the American History museum, and the National Archives. ![]()
After that, students walked to the Washington monument and the Franklin D. Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Jr. memorials.![]()
We ended the evening at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts to attend the musical Jersey Boys. ![]()
We can’t express enough what a wonderful experience this has been for us (BREC chaperones) and the students. We encourage all of our children of members to take the opportunity to apply next year for a once in a lifetime experience.![]()
"I cannot put into words how amazing this trip was, and I have nothing but positive things to say. I made so many new friendships, formed new bonds, and experienced so many fun and exciting things all while learning about the our nation and meeting our representatives. I also feel that my leadership skills developed further and I learned a ton while I was there. This is a trip that I will absolutely never forget and I encourage anybody who is presented with the chance to experience Youth Tour to go. You will not regret it and never forget it." - Nate Baird
