Belinda Friis and Ric Lawson from the Huron River Watershed Council are here to shed light on the work they’re doing to protect one of the biggest and most important rivers in the Michigan area of the Great Lakes. You’re gonna find out today what forever chemicals are and what they are doing to help protect these chemicals from getting into our streams. You’re gonna find out what the Stonefly search is all about and how this is helping to prepare some of the work they’re doing out in their area.

And you’re also gonna get a little bit of hope, actually a lot of hope into looking at the future. We’ve talked a lot about this on the podcast. There’s definitely some ups and downs in species populations, but today we’re gonna be talking about a few in this area and you’re gonna get some good direction moving forward. Plus, did I mention it? We’re gonna be giving away a trip to Schultz Outfitters, and if you wanna get involved in this trip, you can do it. We’ll talk about that at the end. Definitely pumped to get into the Detroit area, putting Detroit on the map, the Huron River. This is gonna be awesome. So let’s give back to another great organization.
