Save the River’s RiverKeeper Monitoring Program for Ages 12+
August 19, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Please join us at the library for Save The River’s new Riverkeeper Volunteer Program. This program is open to teens and adults, ages 12 and up. Attendees must register at the library prior to the event, attendance will be limited to the first 30 to register.
The Riverkeeper Volunteer Program trains volunteers to be our eyes and ears out on the River, by teaching the basics on assessing River health and identifying potential pollution problems.
Riverkeeper volunteers will be trained to keep an eye out for pollution, wildlife die-offs and subtle changes in the River ecosystem that can indicate changes in River health. Volunteers will also learn how to assess pollution problems and how to effectively report these problems to the proper authorities.
Volunteers who attend this session will receive all the materials needed to participate in the program as well as a Save The River t-shirt.
