Parents/guardians will be responsible for their child(ren) for the entire workshop. \nSaturday\, May 20\, 2023 from 9am – 12pm  \nLocation\nKreher Preserve & Nature Center\n2222 N College St\nAuburn\, AL 36830 \nRegistration Fees \nRegistration is $5 for each participant in the family. Note: Your registration is not complete until your payment is received.

To make the most of your experience during the workshop\, parents/guardians will go through the Introduction to Alabama Water Watch Online Course to be introduced to our program and citizen science. \nKids will get up close and personal with critters of the creek! They will collect aquatic macroinvertebrates using nets and pans\, conduct simple identification\, and help determine a biotic index as an indicator of water quality. Kids will also participate in hands-on activities focused on water pollution and adaptations of macroinvertebrates. \nAWW Monitoring Certification in Stream Biomonitoring is available for parents and guardians who complete additional requirements. Get in touch with us if you are interested! \nAdverse Conditions Statement \nIn the spirit of good stewardship of our participants’ safety\, health\, and physical condition\, Alabama Watch Water would like to address some of the potential hazards and/or special circumstances that outdoor workshop events may present to individuals. You will be walking in terrain that varies from flat to very steep and/or brushy ground.

You may encounter plants or wildlife that can pose a hazard to your health including\, but not limited to stinging insects (such as bees\, wasps\, hornets\, scorpions)\, venomous snakes and/or spiders\, allergenic plants (such as poison ivy\, poison oak\, poison sumac)\, or other seasonal\, plant-derived allergies. If you have any known life-threatening allergies and/or are required to carry an Epi-Pen\, you are responsible for notifying an AWW Staff member prior to the outdoor event and carrying required materials for your safety (ex.

SUMMARY:Understanding and Advancing Your Bacteria Monitoring - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 11\, 2023 from 12-1pm   \nLearn how to interpret bacteriological water quality test results and adapt a monitoring plan to better identify sources of pathogen pollution. \nJoin us for this one-hour webinar where we will discuss how to adapt your water monitoring plan when you find a water quality issue through bacteriological testing. We will provide an overview of how to use the Online AWW Water Data Tools to understand AWW bacteria monitoring data\, how to conduct strategic sampling to narrow down the potential pollution source\, and how you can seek out solutions to water quality issues resulting from fecal contamination.   \nThis webinar will be most applicable to AL Water Watch Bacteriological Monitors and members of their watershed groups who utilize the data. However\, anyone wanting to learn more about how to use water data to identify and solve bacteriological pollution issues in their watersheds will benefit.   \nZoom registration is required: https://aub.ie/bacteriawebinar   \nContact us with any questions awwprog@auburn.edu or 334-844-4785
