For the stream cleanups, wear clothes that can get wet and closed-toes shoes like tennis shoes or water shoes. If you have your own pair of rubber boots or waders, you could bring them. You may also want to bring your own cotton gloves to wear over the blue gloves. Covid-19 Precautions: Equipment will be sanitized between all events and during events as needed.Increased hygiene and hand washing prior to and during events.Physical distance mandatory during event.Masks are strongly encouraged and will be worn by instructors. Cobb’s Watershed Stewardship Program (WSP) provides free ecological education programs for classrooms, community groups and businesses within Cobb County. These hands-on programs  teach community members about the sources and impacts of water pollution and what individuals can do to protect rivers, lakes and streams. We also coordinate community service projects, facilitate teacher workshops, and create education resources for checkout and distribution. WSP is housed in the Water Quality Laboratory of the Cobb County Water System.
