Have you ever thought about how many times a day you use water from a faucet or about the critical role drinking water plays in our daily lives?

If not, take the opportunity in May to learn more about where your drinking water comes from and what makes it safe to use. 

Drinking Water Week is a unique opportunity for both water professionals and the communities they serve to recognize water's vital role in our lives. The City's Water Resources Department invites you to renew your appreciation of water and what it takes to deliver it to your tap 24/7/365. 

Celebrate the week by:

• Thanking our dedicated water professionals like engineers who design infrastructure, crews who fix water main breaks, and lab technicians who ensure water safety and quality. Follow us throughout the week on social media to learn more about Greensboro's water professionals.
