A free Texas Watershed Steward training program will be held 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on March 25 at the Boerne Convention and Community Center at 820 Adler Road in Boerne, Texas.
The Texas Watershed Steward program is sponsored by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service and the Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board, in coordination with the City of Boerne.
Although free, pre-registration is required for participation.
"The Texas Watershed Steward program is a great opportunity for watershed residents to get involved and make a difference in their community," says Jennifer Peterson, AgriLife Extension water program specialist. "It is designed to help them improve and protect their water resources by getting them involved in local watershed protection and management activities."
Peterson says Texas Watershed Stewards learn about watershed systems, water quality regulation and monitoring, methods to improve water quality, and community-driven watershed protection and management.
Pre-registration is now open and required for participation. For more and to pre-register, go to the Web site at tws.tamu.edu or contact Jennifer Peterson at 979-862-8072.
