LIVINGSTON MANOR, NY — The public is invited to a short program, “How Does Your River Flow,” with Jamie Myers, biologist with the Upper Delaware National Park Service, at Morgan Outdoors on Saturday, November 8 at 2 p.m.

Myers will bring an EnviroScape, a plastic tabletop model of a watershed showing hills, valleys, fields and rivers. Small model houses, cars, trees, and animals are added. Then, using materials like candy sprinkles and food coloring to represent pollutants, the public can see how the watershed works. The program is perfect for curious people of all ages.

Myers will also bring maps and information about the Delaware River watershed. The streams, creeks and rivers in the Livingston Manor/Roscoe area are the headwaters of the Delaware River. In total, the Delaware River’s watershed comprises 2,390 square miles of land area in New York State and 6,465 in PA. This network of flowing fresh water eventually flows into Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Do you know your watershed address?

Jamie Myers has been educating area school children on the importance of being environmental stewards of their watershed through the Water Snapshot Program since 2000. Myers and her husband Brad are raising two environmental stewards of their own. Son Silas, 6, and daughter Eliza, 3, have both been kayaking the Upper Delaware River with their parents since they were infants.

Also in Livingston Manor, is the exhibition “River and Biota” at CAS Arts Center, next door at 48 Main St. The exhibition is a complement to Myers’ science-based watershed program. Learn more about the exhibition at catskillartsociety.org.
