Children
Have you ever wondered about the critters that live in the river and what they might be able to tell us about its health? In this workshop, young nature detectives will collect macroinvertebrates from the shallow edges of the James, learn how to identify them, and piece together a real-life snapshot of the river's health.
WE WILL MEET AT JAMES RIVER PONY PASTURE ON JULY 13TH AT 10AM.

Teens
The James River Association brings you a teen workshop that blends science with environmental activism. You’ll investigate the water quality of the James through experiments about its turbidity, dissolved oxygen content, and more. You’ll also learn how to interpret your results in analyzing the health of the river. Activities will focus on caring for our watershed and local community as well as sharing volunteer opportunities for teens with a passion for environmental issues. Come to learn, have fun, and make a difference!
We will meet at Pony Pasture promptly at 10AM. Please wear comfortable shoes and bring a water bottle and sunscreen.
