RiverWatch Spring 2022 Workshop Franklin Grove (Dixon)

The Illinois RiverWatch Network is a statewide, non-profit, volunteer stream monitoring program. Volunteers are trained and certified as citizen scientists to monitor and protect a local stream. Upon completing training and becoming certified, volunteers adopt a stream site and examine indicators of water quality like stream habitat and the diversity of macroinvertebrates. This workshop will take place at the address on the left.

This workshop is primarily for adults (18+). Kids under the age of 18 are allowed to attend with an adult chaperone, and are not required to register, but do need to be noted on their chaperone's registration form. One registered adult may only bring up to 2 kids with them. Kids must have a liability form signed by a parent or legal guardian. Kids attending the workshop for free will not receive any materials.

Registration and Payment Deadline. Registration and payment must be made by one week before the event to secure your seat and materials for the workshop. Anyone registering or paying after this date is not guaranteed admittance. 

Payment Refund Policy. Workshop registration payments are fully refundable (-2% processing fee if paying by credit card) if refund is requested by one week before the event. Refunds requested within one week before the event WILL NOT be granted.
