  • Register for the Arkansas Envirothon State Competition and pay $100 registration fee. 
  • When the scenario is shared prepare a 20-minute PowerPoint presentation to bring with you to the contest.
  • The day of the contest the five team members will work together to take 100-point tests for each of the following: aquatic ecology, forestry, soil, and wildlife
  • The team will give their 20-minute presentation to judges who can then ask questions for up to 10-minutes. 
  • Winners will be announced on the day of the contest
  • If the winning team of the state contest scores an average of 75% on the four written tests, the team will be able to represent Arkansas Envirothon at the National Conservation Foundation (NCF) Envirothon contest.
