Our primary program of stewardship for Wildcat Creek. Guardian Section Coordinators
regularly visit their adopted section of the creek, working with local landowners
whenever possible, to pick up trash and check general conditions.
Discover Wildcat
Creek: (Director:
Chuck Weis, 765-477-7948, cweis733@aol.com)
The Discover Wildcat Creek program is an opportunity to help communities throughout
the watershed experience the beauty of the creek environment. Upon request,
Guardians escort people on canoe trips through Wildcat country. These trips
are a way of teaching others to respect the creek and join us in protecting
this wonderful natural resource.
Education/Outreach:

Our Guardian
education programs strive to increase public awareness of environmental
issues in the Wildcat Creek Watershed and to motivate others to appreciate
and protect our natural resources.
Water Quality
Monitoring: (Director:

Guardians regularly visit specific sites along the creek and major tributaries
to take water samples and conduct test of water quality. These tests include
chemistry and survey of aquatic organisms.
