Last night the Stream Extravaganza was held at Flat Branch Park as part of Twilight Festival. This special event, organized by the Public Works Stormwater program, aims to educate the public about our streams, stormwater, and the animals that exist in the environment. Hundreds of people came to the event - including many families.
Events like the Stream Extravaganza don't happen without the help of volunteers! Pictured here are David Melegrito and Rachel Pia staffing a table on behalf of the Master Naturalists on the topic of ground and surface water systems. David and Rachel were among many volunteers who came to educate the public about their passion for the environment.
David and Rachel are active volunteers in many ways! David is active with the Fil-Am Association with an Adopt-A-Spot beautification bed in Rollins Road and Rachel is part of the city's TreeKeepers program.
