SUMMARY:CRWC Adopt-A-Stream Event
DESCRIPTION: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. \nEach team will receive its own time and location and team leaders will pick up kits from the CRWC office before the event. Participants who do not have a team should contact Lydia (lydia@crwc.org) or Mikela (mikela@crwc.org) at least one week in advance of the event. \nNew participants should attend one of our trainings – click here for more information. \nRegister HERE.

SUMMARY:Clinton River Watershed Council Stonefly Search
DESCRIPTION:Winter stoneflies (Capniidae and Taeniopterygidae) are important biotic indicators of water quality. Their increasing numbers are one way we can tell that water quality has greatly improved from historical conditions in the early and mid-1900’s. \nThese stoneflies have natural anti-freeze in their blood\, so they are able to remain active in the winter months. Reproducing in the winter allows them to avoid many predators and increase their chance of surviving into adulthood. Stonefly nymphs are extremely sensitive to water pollution and develop in cool\, well-oxygenated water. The presence of stoneflies is an indicator of good water quality\, and their absence in areas where they previously occurred may indicate pollution. \nThe Search – Each winter\, teams of volunteers canvass winter stonefly populations at locations along the Clinton River and its tributaries. This fun and educational event is free\, family-friendly\, and open to the public – no experience required! \nHow It Works – Volunteers all meet at the Clinton River Watershed Council office at 9:00 a.m. on February 1st. Based on previous experience\, volunteers will receive a short training or team leader refresher to prepare for the search. \nLed by Team Leaders\, volunteers will split into teams to survey sites throughout the watershed to look for this thriving cold-weather creature. Team Leaders help their groups coordinate and follow site procedures to ensure that stonefly data is being collected safely and consistently. \nRegister HERE.
