Rock Creek Insect Monitoring – Volunteer Opportunity

Volunteers are needed March 23rd-27th to help The Salmonfly Project perform aquatic insect surveys on Rock Creek.  No previous scientific experience is required – only the ability to wade confidently in cold, knee-deep water while carrying nets/supplies.

Data collection is part of SFP’s ongoing monitoring program to the status and trends of key aquatic insects on Rock Creek.

Timeframe: Volunteers are needed from 10:00am-5:00pm each day. A minimum volunteer-time of 4 hours is required to allow sufficient time for training, but its preferred for volunteers to stay for an entire day, if possible. 

What you’ll need: Please bring your own waders, boots, and other basic supplies (e.g., food, water, etc.).

Where to meet: Meeting locations will be coordinated via email or text, but will occur at 7 sites across the entire Rock Creek drainage.

Interested? Sign up by filling out this Google Form, detailing your availability, and include your cellphone number.

Wrap Party: Join us to celebrate a successful field season at Kettlehouse in Missoula. Proceeds from beer sales will be donated to SFP.
