SHERBURNE – Hundreds of CNY high school students are expected to gather and compete in the annual Central New York Regional Envirothon Wednesday and Thursday at Rogers Environmental Education Center. High school students from Greene, Bainbridge, Otselic Valley and DCMO BOCES will represent Chenango County this year alongside others from Cayuga, Madison and Onondaga Counties. By the end of Thursday, only one winning team from each county will be left standing, qualifying to compete in the New York State Envirothon scheduled for May 30 and 31 at Morrisville State College.

This marks the second time in two years that the Rogers Center has hosted the annual, regional Envirothon, having done so eight times in total since 1995.

“The Friends of Rogers are very excited to host this great event at Rogers Environmental Education Center in Sherburne,” said the center’s executive director Simon M. Solomon. “Rogers Center has hosted this event off and on since its inception and we are thrilled to be able to continue this tradition.”
