Join our Stream Water Chemistry volunteer team to conduct field tests on dissolved oxygen content and other parameters at two sites along Galloway Creek, an important stream leading to our own Jug Bay. Water samples are also collected for lab analysis. Volunteers will learn how to use professional equipment to measure water quality parameters and hike out into the Sanctuary. Approximate volunteer time is 2-4 hours. Volunteers should be dressed for the outdoors and for the weather. Bring a reusable water bottle and a snack or bagged lunch.
