If you are passionate about the environment and want to help save the Little Falls creek and surrounding space from pollution, Please consider attending the brand new Watershed Stewards Academy and becoming a Master Watershed Steward.
It's a new program out of the University of Maryland sponsored in part by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. There are twelve classes beginning in March and spanning 3 months. Through the course, community leaders will be empowered to guide their neighbors to change the way they handle stormwater.
Participants will graduate from the Academy as Master Watershed Stewards by completing the course and taking on a Capstone Project that will reduce pollution and runoff at its source, neighborhood by neighborhood. Applicants will be drawn from the District, Prince George’s and Montgomery Counties. The Academy is being run by a coalition of local and regional watershed nonprofit organizations.
Please visit www.ncr-wsa.org to apply before January 10, 2011.
*Please view the class schedule to be sure you can attend all of the classes
*Course will be held at the University of Maryland Campus in College Park Maryland
