The Chatham County community is invited to join the Chatham County Watershed Protection Department and Clean Water Education Partnership (CWEP) for their Regional Creek Week March 16 –23, 2024. The CWEP Regional Creek Week celebrates the four rivers and numerous creeks that provide the water for residents, animals, and plants that live in Chatham County, as well as the waterways in surrounding counties of the Piedmont region.
Creek Week offers the opportunity for the public to interact with the waters of Chatham County through a variety of river-oriented activities. There are programs where people can visit the rivers, make a craft, meet aquatic insect larvae, learn about plants that are good for streams, and participate in river clean-ups. Individuals may also participate in the Wandering Water Map for fun and prizes. Programs will take place in person and via Zoom.
To learn more about the programs being offered during Creek Week, or to register for those programs, individuals may visit Chatham County Creek Week or CWEP Regional Creek Week and find out how to get involved locally and regionally.
Questions about this event may be directed to Phillip Cox, Chatham County Watershed Protection Department, at (919) 542-8268 or phillip.cox@chathamcountync.gov.
