These video clips were shot somewhere in the Milwaukee River Basin...

Can you name the river? The municipality? Bonus point if you can be even more specific!

We recently hosted two Rain Barrel Workshops for community members.

๐Ÿ’™ At the end of the workshop, everyone earned a certificate for a free rain barrel โ€” ready to put what they learned into action and reduce runoff right in their own yards!

Thanks to our partners at MMSD and Fresh Coast Guardians!
