| Dear River and Watershed friends, Have you seen a new aquatic plant and aren’t sure what it is? Do you care about your local river or stream? Do you want to do more to prevent invasive species infestations? You can help stop infestations in their tracks when you join the ranks of River Runners™. Since 2009, the New Hampshire Rivers Council River Runners™ have been the early detection network for Didymo, Eurasian Milfoil, and other invasive species in our rivers and streams. Training is fun and free and monitoring is easy—just be observant when paddling, swimming, and fishing in your favorite river and then report what you find. You’ll meet new friends and learn valuable identification skills—and you will be a proud citizen scientist. The Upper Merrimack River Local Advisory Committee is proud to host a River Runners™ invasive species training workshop, conducted by the New Hampshire Rivers Council, on
Wednesday, August 31, 2016 from 6:00 – 8:00 PM Conservation Center 54 Portsmouth Street, Concord, NH Light refreshments will be provided by the Upper Merrimack River Local Advisory Committee. The workshop and materials are free of charge but space is limited so please register by clicking here.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us at UMRLAC@MerrimackRiver.org or 603.796.2615 should you have any questions. Sincerely, Michele L Tremblay, Chair, Upper Merrimack River Local Advisory Committee
