Volunteer testing a water sample from the La Honda Creek at Playbowl; he is using an ironing board as a portable lab bench.Anyone young or old can help out! San Gregorio Environmental Resource Center (SGERC) is hoping to add several more stream monitors and office volunteers to our ranks this summer. Opportunities include monitoring Alpine Creek at Heritage Grove and El Corte de Madera Creek near La Honda Rd. We also can use help in the office with managing an increasing amount of stream data and keeping our website updated.

Come visit our booth at the La Honda Fair, June 11th and 12, 2011 for more information. You can also send an email to sgerc@sanmateo.org or call the office at (650) 726-2499

Join our dedicated group of friends and neighbors that love putting in a few hours a month to help keep this area as beautiful as it is! See you at the Fair!
