ANCHORAGE WATERWAYS COUNCIL VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES ANCHORAGE WATERWAYS COUNCIL PROVIDES A VARIETY OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR VOLUNTEERS. WE TRAIN PEOPLE TO MONITOR WATER QUALITY WHICH THEY DO ON A MONTHLY BASIS. DURING OUR ANNUAL CREEK CLEANUP WE TYPICALLY HAVE 600-800 VOLUNTEERS WHO GO OUT AND CLEAN TRASH FROM CREEKS IN MAY. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO CONTACT US WHEN THEY HAVE CONCERNS REGARDING CREEK ISSUES-THEY ARE OUR "EYES ON THE CREEK". CORPORATE GROUPS OFTEN ASK US FOR AN AD HOC PROJECT, SUCH AS TRASH CLEANUP, INVASIVE PLANT REMOVAL, OR MONOFILAMENT BIN LINE EMPTYING. VOLUNTEERS HELP US RUN EVENTS SUCH AS SCOOP THE POOP DAY OR OTHER TABLING ACTIVITIES. SOME PEOPLE WILL DO A SURVEY OF A CREEK WHICH ADDRESSES A VARIETY OF QUESTIONS. OTHERS DO ENTRY OF OUR MONITORING DATA INTO A DATABASE. WE HAVE UNPAID INTERNS WHO DO MANY THINGS TO ADVANCE OUR MISSION AND ENHANCE THEIR EDUCATION. THEY WORK WITH YOUTH AT THE CREEKS, TABLE AT EVENTS, AND DO SPECIAL PROJECTS. |
