A series of four free workshops on water quality will begin May 14, as DeKalb Adopt-A-Stream and Stone Mountain Memorial Association work to raise awareness about protecting the county’s water resources. The workshops, limited to the first 20 people who register, are designed to train volunteers on how to collect and interpret data, and to learn what impacts DeKalb’s water quality. For more information or to register for the workshop, contact Michael O’Shield, Environmental Education Coordinator, at 770-724-1456 or msoshield@dekalbcountyga.gov.
