is to be a vehicle for understanding and appreciating the natural
wonders in our own backyards.

	Water Quality/Stream & Lake Ecology Eighth grade students from RTR Middle School were out with the Ecology Bus on April 26 at Camden State Park, learning what it takes to determine the health of our rivers, lakes and wetlands by studying Water Quality and Stream & Lake Ecology programs.  Students had the opportunity to use scientific equipment to test physical, chemical and biological aspects of water and how all three types of tests help us to understand the health of our most important natural resource – water! The group explored the river to determine how landscape, land use and wildlife shape these important ecosystems.
