Green Infrastructure Thursday (2021-04-29)

Green Infrastructure Thursday

Thursday, April 29, Explore Green Infrastructure Resources with us. Kory Kreiseder, the Stormwater Specialist at The Watershed Institute, will talk about how we can use trees, plants and soil to capture and clean the polluted stormwater runoff that is the #1 source of water pollution here in New Jersey. In the process we can add beauty to our communities and habitat for native species. Keep an eye out for more activities and details.

The Rider University Eco-Reps will host an Ultimate Green Trivia Kahoot! to start the evening at 6:30 so don’t be late!

Water Wednesday

Register for Water Wednesday:

Why are there more heavy rain events? Are our streams becoming more polluted from local stormwater flows? We’re partnering with the Friends of Colonial Lakes Advocate Tom Ritter for a presentation that paints a vivid picture of the strong bond that the people of the Lakeland neighborhoods have had with the park and the lake for the last 97 years, up to and including the mission of the recently formed Friends of the Colonial Lake Nonprofit. Join water enthusiasts and residents and learn how we can work together to protect and improve its health.
