Thursday morning, our team will be out collecting water samples from Spa and Back Creeks to monitor bacteria and oxygen levels, and more, to assess the health of the creeks. YOUR donations have made this possible. Please consider a gift to Spa Creek Conservancy during this last day of GreenGive. Thank you. https://spacreek.net/donate-to-spa-creek-conservancy/

Please consider a donation to Spa Creek Conservancy and our partner groups during GreenGive June 2 - 3. We are excited that this year we have a $2,500 matching donation from a generous board member. All donations will be used for weekly water testing, providing fun Creek recreation for kids with no access to water, and in-ground projects that further our mission to restore Spa Creek to a fishable, swimmable state. https://spacreek.net/donate-to-spa-creek-conservancy/

Before the rain, these mummichogs were thick in just an inch or two of water in Spa Creek near the Truxtun Bridge. They may be having a spring spawn.

These water samples were collected before it started raining, so the water quality this weekend will not be as good as it was on Thursday when the samples were taken. Red indicates locations where the bacteria levels exceeded safe swimming levels. See the details here https://spacreek.net/about-us/spa-creek-water-testing/spa-creek-bacteria-levels/
