Real science, fun for all ages!
Knowing the types of bugs that live in our streams helps us understand how healthy the river system is, which areas are healthiest, and where we need to focus our restoration efforts to improve water quality.
Join a small team of your friends, family, and other volunteers to collect bugs from streams across the watershed!
Your team will include an experienced volunteer who will bring all the equipment you need to get started. At each sampling site, you and your teammates will search through stones, leaves, and sediment to find bugs in their natural habitat.
Each team’s experienced volunteer has been trained in sample collection. Only trained volunteers go in the water to collect the samples. Please dress to be comfortable outside for a few hours. Children are welcome to attend with an adult. You must register to be assigned to a team!
HRWC welcomes folks of all abilities to our events! A few of our River Roundup sites are accessible to those who use mobility devices or have other mobility disabilities. Please contact Jason Frenzel at jfrenzel@HRWC.org ahead of the event to discuss options.
We have two shifts, one that starts at 9am and one that starts at 10:30am. Each shift will be 4-5 hours long.
