Would you like to become a Streamwatcher?

Attend a training session and join BWA’s first and longest-running program, Streamwatch.

As a volunteer, you can join over 50+ Streamwatchers throughout Monroe County committed to monitoring the streams near their homes and within their communities. The data collected by volunteers on a monthly basis provides a graphic, long-term snapshot of the health of our streams and creeks.

This Streamwatch training session will be led by Environmental Educator and BWA Board Member, Darryl Speicher.

Join us for a visit to Timber Hill Farm in Paradise Township, a 100-year-old farm protected with a conservation easement, put in place by second-generation owner, Edie Stevens, back in 1999. On this outing, we’ll be exploring and learning about vernal pools – a unique type of wetland habitat that is typically a small, shallow water body. Vernal pools, even in their impermanence, play an important role.

This hike will be led by Environmental Educators, Brittney Coleman and Derek Lederer, from Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center. Brittney is also a BWA Board Member!
