Learn to monitor water quality in freshwater streams! No scientific background or experience is necessary--all are welcome to learn how to collect data that can help protect and restore freshwater streams through the SC Adopt-a-Stream program!

This FREE training will provide classroom and in-stream instruction for volunteer monitors on how to collect and identify macroinvertebrates to use as water quality indicators. Come prepared to get your feet wet!

Individuals must pass an open-book exam at the end of the workshop to become certified volunteers and be able to enter data into the www.scadoptastream.org database. Volunteers are encouraged to adopt a site to sample biannually to establish valuable data on the conditions of your stream.

This is an in-person workshop that will be held rain or shine. Registration is limited to 12 participants. Please bring your own lunch, dress for the weather, and invite a friend. Registration is required and spots are limited--please sign up in advance to reserve your seat!
