Open Labs are available for RiverWatchers to receive assistance identifying their macroinvertebrates. RiverWatch staff and microscopes will be ready to assist you!
Due to concerns for Covid-19, Open Labs will be limited to 6 participants at a time. For events with 6 or fewer registrants, the session will be "come and go" as in previous years. If more than 6 individuals register for a location, each participant will be asked to identify a 2-3-hour period when they expect to be present. Hand sanitizer will be available and masks are highly recommended (possibly required).
