Wanna’ know how to protect local streams? Lucky you. Now is the perfect time to get involved with protecting freshwater resources. Next Wednesday, Sept. 8, Eric Diesing, a Watershed Ecologist from the Clinton River Watershed Council will present “Adopt-A-Stream” training at the Oxford Public Library.
Adopt-A-Stream is a volunteer-based initiative that empowers community members to protect local streams and rivers by monitoring water quality. Volunteers are trained, teamed-up, assigned sites, given equipment and data sheets then sent out into the field to gather information on streamside habitats, physical characteristics and aquatic insect populations.
The program starts at 6:30 p.m.
Registration is required for this program. Please visit www.miopl.org for a complete list of programs and registration information, or call the library’s adult services desk at 248-628-3034.
