If you have an interest in the health and well being of our local streams and rivers, and would like to assist in collecting water quality samples, please join us for this training session in which we review monitoring protocols and tips for successful field work. The Addison County River Watch Collaborative has been monitoring the quality of Addison County rivers, streams and creeks for three decades. River Watch volunteers collect water samples on eight Tuesday mornings from April to September. Please bring tick protection as we will be visiting a nearby stream (called Barnes Brook). Nearest Google address is 77 Mary Hogan Dr, Middlebury, VT 05753. Park either in Mary Hogan El. Sch. parking lot or Memorial Sports Center Parking lot. Contact: acrwcvt@gmail.com; 802-434-3236.
