Since 2011, local residents have partnered with Riverkeeper to monitor water quality in the Catskill Creek. We test at 20 fixed locations in the Catskill Creek watershed, from Middleburgh to Catskill. Riverkeeper is currently recruiting people to collect water samples from Middleburgh to Catskill on six Thursdays: May 19, June 16, July 14, August 18, September 15, and October 13. Training will be provided. If you are interested in assisting with this community science project, please contact Jen Epstein at
