Our revised Friends of Sligo Creek brochure is now available. With new photos and text, it highlights our five major areas of activity:
  • Litter (Sweep the Creek)
  • Invasives (RIP)
  • Stormwater/Water Quality
  • Advocacy
  • Natural History
The membership form reflects our new annual dues-based system. The back panel features a custom-made map of the Sligo watershed by Aubin Maynard of the Council of Governments. Thanks for excellent photos goes to Ellen X. Silverberg, Jenifer Kefer, Laura Rothlisbefger, Ed Murtagh, Diane Cameron, and Albert Hartley. Thanks especially to Michele Morgan for the outstanding design.
For copies to distribute, email our Outreach Committee Chair.
