Join a Stream Team
Missouri Stream Team is a working partnership of citizens who are concerned about Missouri Stream. The Stream Team Program provides an opportunity for all interested to get involved in river conservation. Citizens attending the first Rivers and Streams Conference in 1988 set the following Stream Team goals:
If you would like to form a new Stream Team please visit the Missouri Stream Team Program website.
- Education: Learning all you can about Missouri’s 110,000 miles of flowing water is as easy as it is fun. Stream Team provides training and information to better understand our stream systems and the problems and opportunities they face.
- Stewardship: “Hands-on” projects such as litter control, streambank stabilization, streamside tree planting, water quality monitoring, and storm drain stenciling, are all possibilities. Stream Team can help you plan an project or match you with an agency or organization effort.
- Advocacy: Speaking on behalf of your adopted stream when development or harmful activities tamper with them is not as difficult as you might think. Those who have gained firsthand knowledge of problems, solutions, and needs are best equipped to speak out on behalf of Missouri’s stream resources.
