As we gear up for falling leaves and cozy sweaters here at MSI, we wanted to get an early start on reflecting about things we are thankful for - and came up with YOU! We are so lucky to have a large number of enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers in our community who are always willing to jump in and lend a hand with ongoing citizen science monitoring, new programs, or stewardship events. As we wrap up an intensive water quality sampling program this past summer, we wanted to take a moment to show our gratitude to you for all your hard work in current or past volunteer efforts with MSI.
