RiverWatch

I'm pleased to announce the creation of a new St. Marys EarthKeepers initiative: RiverWatch. Throughout the past six years we have worked to inform the public (and fellow environmental agencies) about various issues that threaten the health of our river - from JEA proposed water withdrawals to the introduction of invasive species and potentially harmful industrial/development projects.

Rick Frey (a member of the EarthKeepers' board) will serve as Chair of the RiverWatch committee (comprised of Bob Nutter, Ray Valente and myself). As an avid boater, a St. Marys resident and a Georgia Master Naturalist, Rick offers expertise and dedication.

If you have concerns or questions regarding the St. Marys River, please don't hesitate to contact us.
