Year End Top Five Picks

Thanks to all of the watershed groups and statewide organizations who have worked with Watersheds.tv this past year to make it such a success! If you’re already a “Watershed Watcher” I’d like to thank you for your support. I you haven’t yet become a ‘Watcher’ – please do so today. It’s easy, just click here.

Tatersheds.tv has become a huge success in the past two and a half years. We not only reach out to folks interested in Pennsylvania’s watersheds and water related issues, but we’re reaching out across the nation to expand our watershed family as well. In the past months, 17,000 viewers have checked out the website on a monthly basis! That tells me that a lot of people are interested in learning more about what watersheds and water quality means to their daily lives.

Thanks again to all who have worked so hard to make ‘watershed’ a household word. The following five features are the ones you’ve picked, as Watershed Watchers, as the top five stories of 2002. They’re not rated in any order, just the top favorite stories. Enjoy!

Happy Holidays, we’ll be back in January with all new stories and accomplishments.

Thanks,
Kelly

Getting My Feet Wet...
Travel to the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania to get your feet wet in the Mehoopany. Surrounded by breathtaking scenery, it would appear at first glance that the Mehoopany is a pristine stream. Come along to visit this beautiful area of North East Pennsylvania to learn more about the problems the Mehoopany faces.

Shoup's Run Watershed
Flooding and abandoned mine drainage are not a combination anyone would like to face – but the folks of Shoup’s Run are facing this environmental dilemma head-on…and they’re winning! Check it out to meet the energetic group that’s changing their watershed, and cleaning up one-third of it with just one project.

Mountain Bike Fly Fishing
Talk about pushing yourself! Join Alex Djordjevic and a group of gutsy folks as they mountain bike for three days to beautifully remote areas of Pennsylvania for a little r&r, and a bit of fly-fishing as well.

The Swatara Creek Sojourn
This is a sojourn with a kick! That kick is provided by none other than sojourn organizer, and all around morale booster, Jo Ellen Litz. Organized 14 years ago, this event is not only organized to get in touch with the ‘Swattie’ but also to clean it up… Be sure to check it out.

Berks County Conservancy
Is the word ‘shimmy’ in your vocabulary? If not, you’ll want to read more about the adventures in Berks County! Be sure to tune in to learn how the staff of the Berks County Conservancy are digging in to work with the folks, and the four-legged community as well, to create a happier, healthier community for Berks County.
