Climb aboard our utility vehicles and check out specialized equipment our maintenance crews use in the field. Enjoy some free, ice-cold water from our H2O-To-Go tank and challenge your friends to a game of our version of cornhole!
Go behind the scenes and participate in a guided tour our treatment facility, recently named the 2025 Plant of the Year by the Georgia Association of Water Professionals (GAWP). From reservoir to tap, you’ll gain a new perspective around the technology, collaboration, and dedication it takes to deliver high-quality water to Douglas County residents and businesses every day.
Water is essential — and so are the #H2Opros who treat, test, and deliver it. Come celebrate the conclusion of Drinking Water Week and learn about the value of clean water, how you can help conserve it, and meet the people who make it all possible.
