- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 26 Apr, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Sun, 26 Apr, 2026 at 04:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: HomeGrown HideAways is excited to join the Kentucky Watershed Watch network as a support hub (pending) and to host our first stream sampler training.

The first step to becoming a Watershed Watch volunteer sampler is to get certified.  The certification process begins with introductory online training (modules 1-5) which must be completed before attending the in-person class:
https://www.kywater.org/get-involved/get-certified-as-a-water-sampler/training-modules

Once you've completed the online modules 1-5 and quizzes, you can arrange to attend an in-person workshop.  Register to attend an upcoming workshop near you using this link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfsCL9KOAlDHGR5grAsDhtFP3F8C0YxGc189JU5edx98PczGg/viewform?usp=header

Trained samplers are invited to participate in three annually coordinated sampling events, during which they visit their chosen stream sites to collect monitoring data and submit it to the central database.  These events take place in May, July and September and samplers can complete their monitoring visit any time during those months. Samplers are also welcome to monitor their stream locations independently at any other time of the year. 

Samplers are encouraged to work with their nearest Support Hub to obtain needed supplies and equipment.  These Hubs are being added as needed and will be provided with water sampling resources to loan to volunteers.
