Home / Watershed Friends Groups

Why does ACLT support the friends groups? Because Parker’s Creek does not exist in a vacuum. The health of the surrounding watersheds will inevitably help the health of our own, and at large, the Chesapeake Bay region! We want to help our watershed neighbors protect the resources and environment that they care most about.

Connect:

  • Forge a deeper connection between residents and their watershed

  • Facilitate watershed recreation, such as paddle outings and bird watching

Educate:

  • What is going on in the watershed?

  • Why is watershed stewardship important?

  • What are the options for stewardship?

Mobilize

  • Mobilize watershed residents to partake in active stewardship to advance the restoration of their watershed
