Touring the Chagrin River Watershed
Chagrin River Watershed Partners had the pleasure of hosting a field trip as part of the Land Trust Alliance's annual conference held in Cleveland! Our field trip showcased the Chagrin River Watershed to an international audience and included activities such as touring land protection and river restoration sites, learning about our region’s New England influence as part of the Western Reserve, enjoying a demonstration by the Chagrin Valley Beagles at WRLC’s headquarters, and watching a native fish collection demonstration in the Chagrin River.
We co-led this tour with our land trust partners Western Reserve Land Conservancy and Gates Mills Land Conservancy and we’d also like to thank other partners who helped us show off our scenic river to our tour guests: Village of Gates Mills, The City of Willoughby, and Ohio Department of Natural Resources. We hope you had as much fun as we did!
