Come on down to the river with folks from the Upper Sugar River Watershed Association where we will be wading in the river to experience the water in an immersive way and identifying native and invasive aquatic species of plants and animals that we visit on our way. We may also talk about the river’s ecology and the impacts of invasive species. Please bring your drive for exploration and your questions about the species living in the river!

Please bring waders and a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) if you would prefer to use your own and not to get wet, otherwise PDFs and waders will be provided. If you have not worn waders before, often folks find it most comfortable to wear long pants and socks to wear under the waders.

Sunscreen or protective clothing is recommended. Please bring a water bottle. Water to refill your bottles will be provided.
