QRWA bids farewell to long time member and volunteer Walter E. Akerberg Sr. 

Walt appreciated the work of the QRWA and requested he be honored by donations in his name so that may continue to support our many outdoor programs. Donations may be made to the Quinnipiac River Watershed Association, P.O. Box 2825, Meriden, CT 06450.

 Thank You

Our heartfelt thanks to the Cuno Foundation for their continued support and approval of a recent grant in the amount of $7,600 to purchase replacement windows for our future headquarters that will serve as a regional environmental educational recreational facility on the shores of Hanover Pond and the Quinnipiac River.

Another extened thank you to Yankee Gas for their generous grant of $2500 for our upcoming Butterfly and Bee Garden. The garden will be ready for planting in early June.
