Think you'll love volunteering on the water? RSVP for Arundel Rivers' Underwater Grass training! This program-specifAbout this EventDo you live, work, or recreate on the South, West, and Rhode Rivers? Do you enjoy being on the water (paddle boarding, boating, kayaking, canoeing, or swimming)? Does your walking route bring you to a community dock? Then this is the workshop for you...Underwater grasses are some of the Chesapeake Bay’s most important resources; they provide habitat, hold sediment in place, soak up excess nutrients, and protect our shorelines.This workshop is led by Arundel Rivers’ Monitoring Programs Coordinator, a certified underwater grass trainer. During the training, volunteers will learn how to ID common grass species, why data collection is important, how to collect data in their rivers, and different ways to get involved.No equipment or prior knowledge is necessary to participate! Arundel Rivers will work with you to find the best avenue for volunteering as well as lend out any necessary equipment.Please email riley@arundelrivers.org to RSVP and receive the event location! https://www.arundelrivers.org/ - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/annapolis/arundel-rivers-underwater-grass-training/100001985070694885 - **Event Categories**: workshops, sports, trips-adventures, volunteering - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Annapolis - **state**: MD - **country**: United States - **location**: Quiet Waters Park - **lat**: 38.9377307 - **long**: -76.5008178 - **full address**: Quiet Waters Park, 600 Quiet Waters Park Road, Annapolis, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Arundel Rivers' Underwater Grass Training - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/2bb2dfc585952261d5f4e1946fcbe4546556fa0ee7b08e75131a061259c2d82a-rimg-w680-h490-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1773427831 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Arundel Rivers' Underwater Grass Training being held? - **A:** Arundel Rivers' Underwater Grass Training takes place on Sun, 12 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am to Sun, 12 Apr, 2026 at 11:30 am at Quiet Waters Park, 600 Quiet Waters Park Road, Annapolis, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Arundel Rivers' Underwater Grass Training? - **A:** Arundel Rivers' Underwater Grass Training is organized by Chesapeake Bay SAV Watchers. - **Q**: Who is this event for?

Because SAV is such an important component of the Bay ecosystem, the Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP) and its partners have remained committed to its restoration since the CBP was first established in 1983. Each year since 1984, scientists at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) have partnered with the CBP to map SAV throughout the Bay and its tributaries from aerial imagery. This information has directly informed policy and management decisions that have led to one of the largest resurgences of SAV in the world.Despite this significant success in protecting and restoring the Bay’s SAV, we have more work to do to meet our ultimate restoration target. The aerial survey provides useful information on the location and density of SAV beds throughout the Bay, but it does not provide local-scale data on SAV species diversity or habitat conditions. For this reason, scientists have asked volunteers for help collecting more widespread, coordinated, and detailed SAV data, which could inform new, targeted restoration efforts and management decisions that help us reach our SAV restoration target sooner.Chesapeake Bay SAV Watchers is a program to provide volunteer scientists with an engaging and educational experience with submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) while also generating useful data for Bay scientists and managers. This is the first official SAV monitoring program for volunteer scientists developed by the Chesapeake Bay Program." } ] } ] ```
