Did you know that only 1% of freshwater on earth is accessible, and that 14.2 million people rely on the #DelawareRiver for clean drinking water - even people right here in #DE? #WaterQualityMonth is the perfect time to find out where your water comes from and how to protect it.

Our first ever day fishing camp, Kids Fish the Brandywine, was a huge success! Forty-six campers participated in fun and interactive stations & six caught their very first fish! #fishing #environment #kidsactivities
