The Air Program participates in a variety of activities to bring environmental results to the community, and environmental knowledge to learners of all ages and levels of education. Examples include Earth Day, special collaborations, projects, workshops and presentations with other staff and organizations, and field trips (often with EMO's award-winning FirstBloom program), which are featured in the slideshow above.

The Air Program also brings the learning to Tribal students, in science activities at the Tribe's Education Center and Head Start programs, Storm Spotter Trainings with the National Weather Service, Click the dropdown tabs under "Activities" above for photos and info for Science Education and Storm Spotters. Also, click on the "Library" tab for an archive of newsletters, which include many of these activities.

In 2021, the Air Program commemorated 20 years of weather and science education in the local Paiute communities. We thank everyone who has helped build this long history of opportunity for tribal youth!
