Helping Out The Little Hoosic

Your help is needed, get involved!

To the Editor:

The Little Hoosic Watershed Associated is being revived. At a time when our waterways are being neglected and even abused, we need to take affirmative action. Plans are needed to watchdog and protect our beautiful waterways, both large and small.

Working hand in hand with the Rensselaer County Department of Soil and Water, the Rensselaer County Emergency Preparedness Bureau of Public Safety and the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, you could be an important part of the process.

So please, we are looking for concerned residents in Berlin, Petersburgh, Stephentown and Grafton, that would like to be part of the Association. The Little Hoosic Watershed Association cannot exist without your help. So call Bruce or Jeff and get involved today to save our waterways for tomorrow.
