Join partners and community members from across the Casco Bay watershed for a day of learning, conversation, and collaboration at this event hosted by the Casco Bay Estuary Partnership. This one-day event brings together partners and community members from across the Casco Bay watershed to reflect on the past five years, share what we’ve learned, and look ahead to what comes next. PRLT’s Resilience Corps Fellow Clara Franzoni will be at the poster session sharing updates about her work in monitoring water quality, the alewife migration, outreach events, and more!
