✨Learn about Lake Monitoring✨
Join us on Friday, 6/5 at 2:30pm
How do we know if Maine's lakes are healthy?
Much of that information comes from ordinary people.
Join Lake Stewards of Maine at the Millinocket Memorial Library on Friday, June 5 at 2:30 PM to learn how volunteers across the state help track water quality, monitor invasive species, and collect long-term data on changing lake conditions.
You'll also get an introduction to the science of lakes, discover what decades of monitoring have revealed about Maine waters, and learn how local residents can play a role in protecting one of our state's most important natural resources.
Whether you live on a lake, spend time fishing or boating, or simply care about Maine's environment, this is a fascinating opportunity to learn how community science helps protect the waters we all enjoy.
Free and open to all.
For more information, call 723-7020.

Lake Stewards of Maine (LSM) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization committed to the collection of information pertaining to lake water quality. For over 50 years, trained volunteers throughout Maine have donated their time so that we may all learn more about one of Maine’s most beautiful and important resources — our lakes.
LSM trains, certifies, and provides technical support to hundreds of volunteers every year. These volunteers monitor a wide range of indicators for water quality, assess watershed health and function, and screen lakes for invasive aquatic plants and animals. LSM through our robust community science network is the primary source of lake data in the State of Maine. LSM volunteers benefit their local lakes and broader by playing key stewardship and leadership roles.
