Season’s Greetings from FOMR

 

You—the volunteers and donors of FOMR—

made a lot happen this past year!

In 2023, our volunteers, members and donors:
 .

  • Educated folks of all ages using aqua viewers, touch tanks, and live insects

  • Organized a “Harmful Algal Blooms” lecture for the Wayne Theater

  • Removed 1.88 tons of trash and 203 tires from 20.3 miles of the Middle River

  • Provided river access to over 300 people

  • Collected and shared macroinvertebrate river data for the 13th year

  • Collected and shared E. coli data for the 9th consecutive year

  • Updated FOMR safety procedures to ensure river events are safe for participants

  • Linked landowners holding over 3000 acres with funding sources for easements and other innovative conservation practices

Looking forward to 2024


We are making changes to both our benthic and  E. coli pollution monitoring programs to maximize the usefulness of the scientific data we submit to the Department of Environmental Quality.

 

We’ll be creating our organizational master plan for the next 5 years.


Your year-end tax-deductible donation will help us strengthen and grow our programs for a healthy Middle River


Please donate HERE!

Have a fulfilling Holiday Season and a safe 2024!
