What are Riverkeeper's Susquehanna Stewards?
Because our region is so massive in size and we want to have realistic, lasting impacts in each area of our greater watershed, we are looking to add volunteer stewards to be the extra eyes and ears of our association. They already have a passion for the outdoors, spend lots of time on the water and have connections with valuable resources in the communities they live. They function as contacts for people in their portion of the watershed, help filter information from our association into those regions and help identify important resources in local communities that can help us better protect and promote our river-based resources.
who are the current Susquehanna Stewards?
A. Angie Tuttle, and her husband Eric, are avid outdoorspeople who savor kayaking, fishing and a variety of other activities along our waterways. The duo are actively involved with Patriots Cove, a nonprofit that helps connect veterans with the therapeutic benefits of our outdoor resources. She can be emailed by clicking here.
Get involved: The Middle Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association is looking to add at least four more Susquehanna Stewards in the general geographic regions represented by the empty green circles above. This includes one in the Williamsport/Lock Haven area, one in the State College area, one in the Clearfield area and at least one in the northern tier portion of our watershed. To be considered for our stewards program, or to report concerns you may have within our watershed, fill out our new 2021 Susquehanna Survey and be sure to mention your interest in participating.
