Education Programs

Citizen Advisory Committee | Education | Outreach | Training Opportunities | Volunteer Opportunities

The Nine Mile Creek Watershed District is dedicated in promoting watershed awareness and stewardship throughout the district. We work with k-12 teachers, students, youths and adult volunteers year-round. We bring water education in and outside of the classroom. Water education activities include but are not limited to lesson development, presentations, project wet activities, stream monitoring or field trips. Please contact our education and outreach coordinator, Claire Bleser at cbleser@ninemilecreek.org or call 952-358-2276 for more information or to set up an education event.
