September 10, 2011: River Watch invites the public to celebrate World Water Monitoring Day

On Saturday, September 10^th, from 10 a.m. to noon, please join our River Watchers on the hike-and-bike trail to learn about the importance of clean water. We’ll show visitors how we do our scientific tests, and you can even do a test yourself! This is a family-friendly event, so bring your kiddos and pooches. We’ll look forward to seeing you there!
About World Water Monitoring Day: Each year, water-quality monitors all over the world join together to celebrate their important work. The actual date varies from place to place, but the intent of the event is always to bring public awareness to issues of water quality in our rivers, lakes, and streams.
