River Rendezvous

River Rendezvous is an annual event that looks at water quality at multiple sites along Rottenwood Creek. Volunteers will collect samples for lab analysis, perform water quality testing and habitat surveys, and clean litter from the creek. At previous events, volunteers have been integral in finding and reporting active sewer leaks.

Participants will be assigned a group with a trained and experienced Adopt-A-Stream volunteer or staff person. They will then caravan with the equipment needed to collect samples and conduct the water tests. If you are not certified in Adopt-A-Stream, that’s okay, we still need your help! Once their sites are completed, the caravan returns to the water lab and drops the samples and equipment off and their day is complete. There is plenty of opportunity to learn new water testing skills and get a closer look at our local waterways while you see portions of Rottenwood Creek that are typically not accessed.
