RIVER SPOTLIGHT
Focus: TOAD DETOUR

TOAD DETOUR is an effort to protect toads as they migrate to and from their breeding ground each year and to raise public awareness about the migration. The TOAD DETOUR Committee is composed of local citizens and officials from various agencies. Its main goal is to initiate new policies improving migration safety for the local toads. The Committee will establish a temporary road detour on evenings of heavy migration and educate the community about migration safety.

Get involved HERE.
