🌊 How can we become better stewards of the rivers and watersheds we call home?

Join us for the next Homer L. Dodge Lecture Series presentation, Caring for a River (and Its Watershed), A Talk by Lee Willbanks, Co-Founder and President of Talking Rivers.

He’ll also share more about Talking Rivers’ Through the Eyes of Rivers project and the role individuals and communities can play in observing, protecting, and caring for the waterways around them.
