Are you interested in meeting new friends, learning from local experts about the wonders of the Skagit River watershed, and participating in meaningful community projects?   The Watershed Masters Program is intended for community residents, age 17 and up, who are aspiring to increase their knowledge about local watersheds, water quality, and beach and stream ecology.  Participants attend 8 evening sessions and 3 Saturday field excursions. The purpose of the program is to increase public awareness on a variety of water quality problems and solutions and to inspire community stewardship in regards to water quality.

Training is held in the Fall (Sept. - Nov), however, quarterly workshops, field trips, and other events are held year round.

​

For dates and times of upcoming events and to find out the latest on Watershed Masters graduates, call Carla Glassman @ 428-4313 ext.1025 or email Carla@skagitcd.org

​

Volunteers who complete the training return forty hours of volunteer service over the next year (or two) by undertaking projects designed to protect and/or restore water quality, or educating the public on these same issues. The Project Coordinator will work with each Watershed Master Volunteer who has completed the training to design a plan of action for returning the forty hours of training. Volunteer projects are geared toward the interests of the participant.
