Introduction to Benthic Monitoring

FOMR will offer an introductory class on benthic monitoring and macroinverterbrate identification on Sunday, March 26, 2017, from 3:00 to 6:00 PM at the Churchville Branch Library, Rt. 250 W in Churchville, VA

The class will be conducted by Darrell Schwalm, certified trainer for Virginia Save Our Streams. This is a great way to learn about the macroinvertrebrate population of our local streams and how their presence relates to the general health of our local watershed.

Please notify Whit Morriss at awmorriss@gmail.com or Darrell at schwalmie2@aol.com to register.
