- **Event Description**: Dive into the fascinating geology beneath our feet with Amanda Surfus of Door County Soil & Water! ??
In this informative program, Amanda will explore how karst landscapes—formed from fractured limestone and dolomite—shape the way water moves through Door County.

? Karst systems are known for their thin soils, sinkholes, disappearing streams, and rapid underground water flow. These unique features make our region beautiful ✨, but they also create special challenges and responsibilities when it comes to water quality, groundwater protection, and land stewardship.

? Amanda will explain how water travels through cracks and channels in the rock, why karst areas are especially vulnerable to contamination ⚠️, and what local residents and visitors can do to help protect our shared water resources ?.

The presentation will combine science, stories from the field, and Door County–specific examples ?.

? Drop in — no registration required
? Free and open to the public
? All ages welcome!

? Join us to gain a deeper understanding of the hidden pathways beneath the peninsula and learn how thoughtful choices can keep our waters clean and healthy ??.
