SUMMARY:Grant County citizen science through water quality monitoring
LOCATION:Silco Theater
DESCRIPTION: A “Sonnie Sussillo Memorial Seminar,” this Lunch and Learn session is in m
 emory of Sonnie Sussillo, who was the WILL curriculum chair for two years. 
 Her cumulative years of volunteer work made a significant impact in our loc
 al community.\nPresented by Leigh Jenkins, Coordinator, Silver City Watersh
 ed Keepers; Saturday, April 30, 11 a.m.-noon at the Silco, 311 N. Bullard S
 t., Silver City. Masks are mandatory.  \nWhile a general overview of the ac
 ceptance and implementation of citizen science as a valid form of data gath
 ering will start the presentation — along with a look at some of the big ci
 tizen science websites — the majority of our session time will look at a pr
 oject of our own Gila Resources Information Project.  The Silver City Water
 shed Keepers is a citizen science-based water resources stewardship program
  that engages community members in protection and restoration of the Silver
  City Watershed. The program strives to increase watershed literacy and bri
 ng community awareness to the importance of protecting our local waterways.
  The project uses environmental quality monitoring as a tool to assess wate
 rshed health and address potential threats, such as non-point source pollut
 ion, litter, stream bank erosion, and non-native, invasive species. In this
  presentation, you will learn about the importance of water quality monitor
 ing and what water quality measurements tell us about the health of the wat
 ershed. The new Silver City Watershed Keepers Reporter app that uses a Geog
 raphic Information System platform to assist with monitoring and managing w
 atershed issues will also be demonstrated. This tool is used by volunteers 
 to record environmental quality observations throughout the watershed.\nJen
 kins' interest in water and watershed health began with her love for the ri
 vers and streams of eastern West Virginia where she taught biology and envi
 ronmental science for 18 years. She focused on watershed curriculum in her 
 science classes. Warm Springs Run, a tributary of the Potomac River, ran th
 rough the campus of the high school where she taught. Students learned to m
 onitor watershed health for parameters such as pH, dissolved oxygen, turbid
 ity, and conductivity. Students also participated in citizen science activi
 ties using a Save Our Streams protocol to identify and count macroinvertebr
 ates to determine the biodiversity of the stream. While serving as the exec
 utive director of the Friends of the Cacapon River, Jenkins organized a sum
 mer conservation camp for children teaching them a love and respect for the
  organisms that lived in the river. Since moving to Silver City, she has wo
 rked as the coordinator of the Silver City Watershed Keepers to bring scien
 ce and watershed education to the community and to promote the stewardship 
 of our local waterways.\n
