Three Rivers Waterkeeper Hosts 3 Rivers Watch Summer Training Events July 9, August 6

The Three Rivers Waterkeeper is hosting two more 3 Rivers Watch summer training programs on July 9 and August 6 in the Pittsburgh area.

The 3 Rivers Watch is a network of volunteers who are active river users or river watchers, from individuals to groups, who have a vested interest in clean water. You can monitor the water while you are boating, kayaking, swimming, or even walking along the river. 

If you are passionate about creating drinkable, fishable, and swimmable waters, then you might be a great fit for our 3 Rivers Watch Program. 

Join Three Rivers Waterkeeper for a morning of kayaking or easy hiking with an in-person training session where we go over what pollution to look for and how to report pollution while you're out by or on the water!  

The two remaining training sessions will be held--

-- July 9:  3 Rivers Watch @ Nine Mile Run (hiking), 9:00 to 11:00 a.m.

-- August 6: 3 Rivers Watch @ Deer Creek Boat Launch (kayaking), 9:00 to 11:00 a.m.

Prior to attending an in-person training session, it is recommended but not required that you watch our training videos and complete a short quiz to receive a certification from us!
