Got Rain? Storm Water Expo April 16

If it snows or rains on your property, you need to come to the Storm Water Expo on Saturday, April 16! Running from 9am until 12 noon, the Expo will be held at HCRS (Health Care Rehabilitation Services) located at 390 Route 106 (River St) in Springfield, VT. Come learn about some of the tools, programs, and partners available to help YOU deal with rain and snow-melt on your property.

Exhibits include rain barrels, erosion-control socks, the Stream Table, and more; learn about a new rain garden being installed this spring on a private property with a history of storm water devastation; tour the infiltration area (rain garden) at HCRS; pick up a flyer for a free public presentation about working with nature's water cycles coming up in Ludlow later in April.

A program of the Black River Action Team, the Expo features speakers, materials, and exhibits from the BRAT, State of Vermont, Jan Lambert, Filtrexx Erosion Control Products, Ottauquechee Natural Resources Conservation District, and EJ Prescott. A small $15 registration fee covers all Expo materials and refreshments.

Pre-registration is requested, registration may be paid on the day of the Expo. Register by contacting Kelly Stettner of the Black River Action Team: (802) 738-0456 or [email protected].
