Land Trust host Water Science Day with Rangeley Lakes Regional School

RANGELEY – On a crisp September morning, the Rangeley Lakes Regional School 6th, 7th, and 8th graders were in the field learning about water quality science in the Rangeley Lakes Region. Sponsored by the Rangeley Lakes Heritage Trust, this event highlights the work done by the Headwaters Lake Protection Program staff and volunteers. Experiential education stations were set up throughout the village. Each station had a focus: water quality monitoring with Secchi discs, identifying aquatic plants, LakeSmart, and the invasive Rusty Crayfish. The Secchi station, led by volunteers Jim and Deb Ferrara, focused on the turbidity clarity of regional waters.
