Come one, come all, Saturday February 12th, 2pm to defeat the Juggernaut. Many of you’ve met this water-wasting beast. Some haven’t. This is your last chance, he’s been defeated!

Designed to overwhelm just about anybody, this 13’ tall plastic monster represents the average southern Californian’s daily water footprint. That’s 365, 5-gallon bottles or 1,800 gallons/day!

The exhibition Splash! How Good Water Works has a simple mantra - defeat the Juggernaut. Within The Ecology Center you’ll find 10 fairly simple ways to defeat this water beast, dropping your daily water footprint from 1,800 to 950 gallons/day.

It’s been done, thanks in part to all of our neighbors, and the City of San Juan Capistrano. Juggy has been defeated!

Come celebrate Juggy’s defeat - Saturday February 12th, 2pm. We’ll be firing up the cob oven for pizzas (Juggy’s favorite), cold drinks and family fun!

What's next for Juggy?

The Ecology Center is launching a community design challenge with prizes (from Hurley and The Ecology Center) for winners announced on World Water Day, March 22nd.

What would you do with 365, 5-gallon bottles?
Here's the challenge: Design a product or project using at least 300, 5-gallon bottles to inspire your community to decrease their water footprint. It could be 300 products or 1 large one. Most importantly, it has to promote water awareness and be part of the solution!
Stay tuned, full contest details will be announced February 18th on TheEcologyCenter.org and Hurley.com.
