June 21-22, 2013: Eight young women of Austin Youth River Watch enjoyed a night swim at Barton Springs during a sleepover. They hosted employees of ERM under the Montopolis Bridge and learned about the history of the Montopolis Community from Fred McGhee, who is currently writing a book about the community. River Watchers tested water quality, tested native local ecotype grass seed, and planted Eastern gamagrass that was grown by River Watchers at the EcoHouse in Hornsby Bend.
