River Watch trainings provides an opportunity for your organization to become volunteer water quality monitors in Colorado. Our program is based on a first come, first serve basis. The cost of the training will include all food and lodging for the River Watch trainings at either Cedaredge (July 28-31) or Pingree Park (October 7-10). Lodging is dorm style with shared facilities, meals are cafeteria style.
New organizations seeking to be a part of River Watch of Colorado are requested to pay a one time $220 fee. The fee will cover the cost of one participant to attend this training and to help subsidize the cost of the equipment you will receive (valued at over $1900), as well as curriculum and program support. All other participants from new or existing groups are expected to pay for each individual’s training cost of $110 per person. Meals and lodging are included in the $110.
A $50 deposit is due when you fill out this registration form. You can also choose to pay the full registration amount if you wish.
The deadline to register for the Cedaredge training is July 1, 2015 and for the Pingree Park training, the deadline is September 15, 2015. Registration after these dates will be $250 per new group and $140 per additional volunteer. You can register online below.
