Ogeechee Riverkeeper - This Thursday May 3rd

Please join us this Thursday evening as we are pleased to host Dianna Wedincamp from the Ogeechee Riverkeeper.

As Riverkeeper, Dianna actively monitors our rivers and streams for pollution, advocates for pollution prevention and clean water in our communities, conducts educational programs on preventing pollution, and promotes stream restoration. Dianna's expertise in outdoor recreation is a great asset to the organization, and she often leads paddle trips down the rivers. At Ogeechee Riverkeeper she helps to train stream monitoring volunteers, Get the Dirt Out (www.getthedirtout.org) volunteers, research pollution problems on the rivers, respond to citizen complaints, and conduct educational programs for civic clubs, schools, and at local festivals.

Dianna is a native of Emanuel County, Georgia. She has a B.S. degree in Recreation with emphasis in Natural and Cultural Resource Management and a minor in Geographic Information Systems from Georgia Southern University. Dianna lives in Emanuel County with her family.
