POWJH ALGAL BLOOM AWARENESS EVENT:

What causes algal blooms? How do they occur in the environment? How can they be recognized? Learn how to keep your family safe (including dogs!) while recreating in the water this summer.

• Interactive science-based displays for the whole family
• Public Safety Recreation Guidance + Citizen Science Bloom Programs
• Contests + Prizes
• Free Sun Hoodie Giveaways! (while supplies last)

Short presentations from Matt Bambach (POWJH Water Resources Program Manager) and Kristin Gardner (Gallatin River Task Force, Chief Executive and Science Officer) will begin around 6:15 pm. There will be plenty of time for questions and discussion, and water and snacks will be provided.
