To celebrate the United Nations World Environment Day, we invite you to consider your impact on the global ecosystem - how can you help leave this planet better than you found it? Whether it's taking responsibility for your own water consumption through installing rainwater, using less one-time-use plastics, riding to work on a bicycle or moped (shoutout to Chris Nerren!), we can all do our part to help the environment. We are a global community - I invite you to consider your role in that community! And as always, call us if you want to explore water conservation opportunities at your home! Here is a photo of us cleaning up an Austin creek with our crew - taking care of our local environment!

As promised, highlights from the May ARCSA International conference at the Grundfos HQ in Brookshire, Texas! We heard from our old friend and colleague James Grizzard about his journey in rainwater harvesting, as well as expert panels from Rainwater Equipment LLC & VIQUA and of course the hosts Grundfos about sizing the correct equipment for a rainwater system. Participants traveled as far as Hawaii to join us in growing the rainwater movement! After the conference, Grundfos received the first certification under our Rainwater Harvesting System Certification program during the 2026 Technical Symposium. We are excited to help more rainwater systems get certified through this new progrtam!

And that's a wrap for the ARCSA International 2026 Symposium! We will share highlights from the presenters next week for those who weren't able to attend in person. Here is a quick snap of Chris Maxwell-Gaines MCing the event!

The The Chris Long Foundation is doing great work to help East African communities obtain water security - a gift that many of us take for granted! Check out their website to understand their impact and how you can get involved:

River Place Elementary School annual STEAM event was a blast! An educational night where the kids learn about arts, science, math and engineering, the kids ran from table to table engaging in all kinds of fascinating topics. From doctors to beekeepers, the attendees were diverse and informed! We even got to meet our friend Dowser Dan from Austin Water, another water conservation rockstar.
