What's more romantic than protecting the Boise River from our waste? Grab a date or join solo for "Love at First Flush," The WaterShed's second annual adults-only Valentine tour of the West Boise Water Renewal Facility.
Your ticket includes rare sunset views of the clarifiers, fun photo ops, chocolate fondue, and the surprisingly romantic story of how we turn toilet water into clean water for the Boise River. Plus, you'll enjoy a candlelight dinner by Life’s Kitchen and Valentine-making for Public Works heroes. Fancy dress is optional, closed-toe shoes are required (we'll also provide a hard hat for each attendee).
Participants should be prepared to walk a half-mile outdoors, on pavement and steel grating steps.
This is a unique opportunity to join us on the only water renewal tour of the year!
Pre-registration and payment of $20 is required.
