At the 18th Annual Lake Links workshop, we learned about the many citizen science initiatives available. Keynote speaker, Kat Kavanaugh of the Water Rangers, spoke on: Enhancing, Restoring & Exploring: Applications for Citizen Science on Your Lake.
Watersheds Canada is one of the many organizations that make Lake Links possible each year. Representatives from Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority, Cataraqui Conservation, Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Friends of the Tay Watershed, Watersheds Canada, the Lake Networking Group, and other local environmental agencies and organizations are fundamental to the success of this annual workshop.
