The Schuylkill Action Network is now accepting applications from high school students interested in participating in the Schuylkill Acts & Impacts Watershed Expedition.  The deadline for applications is April 24.

Schuylkill Acts & Impacts is a weeklong watershed expedition that is offered to a team of 12 high school students from the 5 counties--Schuylkill, Berks, Montgomery, Chester, Philadelphia-- in the Schuylkill River watershed.

Students will spend the week learning about different water quality impacts in the watershed, do hands-on testing, learn from and interact with environmental professionals throughout the watershed, and will camp, kayak, and have tons of fun!

Schuylkill Acts & Impacts is a partnership between Schuylkill Headwaters Association, Fairmount Water Works, Stroud Water Research Center, and Take It Outdoors Adventures.
