Educators, make a splash this summer. We are partnering with @urbanrivers to host a two-day water quality workshop for 5th -12th grade educators along the Wild Mile.
After completing the workshop, participants will have access to water quality monitoring equipment through the Limno Loan program and be able to schedule a Wild Mile field trip. Plus, earn up to 10 professional development hours!
