ValleyCrest is teaming up with Hunter to give away 100 Hunter® Wireless Rain-Clik™ rain sensors, one a day for 100 days. Part of the ValleyCrestTakesOn.com “100 days, 100 ways” campaign, the drawing is designed to call attention to the national water crisis and the strategies and technologies that could help avert it. (Like, say, 100 fewer people running their sprinklers in the rain.) Winners will be announced here starting August 1st. But check back every day for more new ways of saving — and thinking about — water.

    Bill, thanks for the comments about Pierce College. I really enjoyed the video. We are going to do an article on the project and post it in the next few weeks. We are not finished yet, and want to capture some of the construction as well as the finished product. This has been a great team effort and a model for other schools to save water.
