Watershed Monthly Meeting Agenda

Greetings fellow Bayshore Watershed folks,

Our next Bayshore Regional Watershed Council meeting will take place this Thursday evening, July   8, 2010 at 7:30pm, inside Keyport Borough Hall, located off Front Street.

Since we will be having a special guest from Sierra Club to discuss the PurGen topic, most time will be given to this agenda item. Other agenda items will be discussed later in the evening or at our next watershed monthly meeting.

PurGen is a significant environmental issue that will be debated in the NJ-NY metro area for the next several years. It is important that we all become educated on this topic as soon as possible.

Please join us for our July meeting and please pass this email around and invite your friends, family, and all interested people.

I look forward to seeing you all this Thursday evening.

Thanks & Fair winds,
Joe Reynolds
