There’s a lot that goes into keeping the water flowing in Santa Cruz, which is completely dependent on local rainfall for the City’s water supply. To show customers what it takes to plan for a reliable water future, the Santa Cruz Water Department has developed Aqua Cruz, a board game that puts players in charge.

Every decision counts in the race to close the water supply gap. Aqua Cruz players will strategize which projects to pursue while navigating real-world challenges to keep the water flowing!

Come play Aqua Cruz at one of five public game play events this summer! The events are free to attend and no RSVP is necessary. Aqua Cruz is recommended for ages 13 and older. Want to schedule an Aqua Cruz game play event for your organization? Email [email protected]
