See fall colors and help us find the river bugs that tell how healthy the river is. Join the River RoundUp on Saturday, Oct. 2. Please register here by Sept. 15! Details about the event are here.

A trained leader will take you to the stream where you search through stones, leaves, and water. Only our leaders go in the water, so you will not get wet. You will be amazed at the amount of life you find in our fresh water! The activities are suitable for all ages, from children (each with their own adult) to retirees. HRWC volunteers make the Huron the best studied river in Michigan!

The Roundup will take about five hours on Oct. 2 and you choose whether to start at 8:45 or 10 AM. You must register by Sept. 15th in order to be put on a team. The event is free.

Learn about the river creatures at ID Day on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 10.

Want to help in other ways? Email Joan ONLY if you can help with set-up (10am on Oct.1), posting fliers (now) or welcoming people to this event (8:30am on Oct. 2).

IMPORTANT! Register by Sept. 15!
