Trout Unlimited Coldwater Conservation Corps Training Schedule

National Trout Unlimited and the Pennsylvania Council of Trout Unlimited have teamed up to develop and implement a stream surveillance program called the Coldwater Conservation Corps which will offer training to volunteers over the next three months.
The training will be held--
-- January 15- Winnie Palmer Environmental Center (Latrobe, PA) Host: Forbes Trail TU Chapter
-- January 29- Dubois Dinner Banquet Facility (Dubois, PA) Host: Allegheny Mountain TU Chapter
-- February 12- Charier's Twp. Municipal Social Building (Charier's Twp., PA) Host: Chestnut Ridge TU Chapter
-- February 26- The Citizen's Hose Company (Lock Haven, PA) Host: Lloyd Wilson TU Chapter
-- March 19- St. Joseph's Church (Lucinda, PA) Host: Iron Furnace TU Chapter
Volunteers will be trained to monitor water resources, conduct visual assessments, and report violations of state laws to appropriate state agencies.
Coldwater Conservation Corps volunteers provide an extra set of eyes and ears on the ground, making sure special watersheds and our coldwater resources are protected.
