April 10, 2014: 19 River Watchers attended the annual Senior Dinner at the Institute of Hospitality and Culinary Arts at William B. Travis High School. River Watch Staff, Board Members, volunteers, and supporters joined the senior River Watchers to celebrate their achievements and to wish them well on their next journey after high school. A slideshow with photos from the 2013-2014 school year reminded us of the adventures we had together, the work we did for our environment, the friendships we made, the impact of collaboration, and the significance of community. Seniors recalled their most memorable experiences as River Watchers and also talked about their plans after high school graduation (below). It was an honor to share this evening with them!
