Wander along the Whetstone Brook (Kitadowôganisibosis) to learn about the history and health of the Brook and its flourishing fishery.

Join Connecticut River Conservancy River Steward, Kathy Urffer, and Water Way(s) partner, Erin Maile O’Keefe, for a day on the Whetstone Brook to talk about what’s happening at various sites along the waterway, understand river dynamics, and learn how water quality testing is done. Join us at one stop or come along for all. Erin and Kathy will be moving from one stop to the next by bike. Feel free to join us on your bike or meet us on the hour at each stop.

It’s going to HOT on Sunday so remember to bring: a hat, sunscreen, water and wear your swimsuit! We’ll be cooling off in the water all day long. There’s no better way to stay cool than to sit in a brook in the shade.
