For more than three decades, the Anacostia Watershed Society (AWS) has been working on recovering the Anacostia River's ecosystems, especially its natural filters. After decades of restoration, education, and advocacy AWS is seeing a great recovery of the biodiversity of the aquatic ecosystems in the Anacostia River. On August 16 at 7:00 PM, Jorge Bogantes Montero, Natural Resources Specialist for AWS, will present a virtual tour of the river and speak about the recovery of this once-neglected urban waterway in the nation's capital. An in-person field trip and boat ride will take place on Saturday, August 20, 2022 for 20 participants. Registration information coming soon.
