Hunt River Watershed Community Workshop

[Beatrice McGeoch]

Hi RIEEA Community!

I'm writing to share an offering for people who work or live in the Hunt River Watershed (aka North Kingstown and East Greenwich). This is a community building workshop to support connection, understanding of local environmental issues, and development of thoughtful ways to move through the world in relation to the waterways we rely on. It's for adults or or older youth. If you've run into me at any event this year, you know its all I've been talking about- now I'm taking all the research and visionary talk and making it real!

I need your help in spreading the word beyond the readers of this list and getting a diverse range of life experiences involved, so if you can think of one person (friend, relative, co-worker, hairdresser...???) who could be connected to this watershed and might join, and have one conversation with them encouraging them to attend, that would be wonderful!

With kind regards,

Beatrice (B)

Hunt River Watershed Community Workshop, 2026, starting April 28!

The Hunt River watershed supplies water for about 30,000 people! This workshop is an opportunity to make connections & share your experience of the watershed while learning more. Enjoy four weeks of learning and discussion about greenspace, transportation, and water management in the area, and meet for walking exploration of different areas in the watershed that connect to our interests. We will be making a map of the watershed that can be used to teach youth and new community members about navigating and finding nature in the area! Meetings are at Davisville Free Library, 6-8 PM, April 28, May 5, 12, 19, and 26. Your choice of field trips on: Fridays, May 1 and 15, 4:30 - 6:30 PM and/or Saturdays, May 2 and 16, 9:30 - 11:30 AM If you can join for most, but not all events, that’s fine. Follow link for sign up details!
