School is wrapping up for many
students in the French Broad Watershed and RiverLink's education programs are
slowing down as they prepare for RiverCamp. RiverLink would like to thank those who make their programs possible.
RiverLink is able to
offer watershed education programs to schools and community groups
throughout the French Broad River Watershed at no cost. To be able to
incorporate outdoor education in a memorable and exciting way while keeping
to North Carolina Education standards gives students a connection and
understanding of our regional watershed while outside of the classroom.
Reaching close to 5,000 students throughout the academic year, the program
continues to get stronger and more developed each year.
Duke Energy recently provided
the education program with a significant grant. These grants allow RiverLink
to obtain needed materials, develop projects, support RiverCamp and keep the
program running. Education of the next generation of river stewards is a
fundamental goal of RiverLink and without grants, donors, and volunteers the
program would not be possible. A sincere thank you to Duke Energy!
If you or
your organization is interested in supporting the health of our watershed
through education consider RiverLink. Since 1987 RiverLink has spearheaded
the economic and environmental revitalization as a place to work, live and
play; they cannot do this without the support of our community! Thank
you!
