Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Last updated on August 20, 2009

We are looking for Earth stewards to participate in our new Stream Watch/Adopt-a-Stream program. This training will include a power point presentation and a stream side hands on learning experience. Workshop participants will learn about the Gunpowder watershed, the challenges it faces, and how we can help County agencies protect and improve our local streams. Topics will include how to properly identify problems such as sewer breaks and toxic discharges, who to contact to report such problems, and how to identify the health of a stream by the creatures that live within it, (so wear rubber boots).

You must be 18 years or over to adopt a stream. Workshop space is limited to 15 volunteers, so please sign up soon! To register or if you have any questions, please contact Peggy Perry, Program Director of Education and Restoration for GVC at little-owl@msn.com or
