Sound Water Stewards of Island County

Project

Summer Education Series on Salmon in Local Waters

Mission

Sound Water Stewards are trained volunteers working for a healthy, sustainable marine environment through education, science and stewardship.

Vision

A healthy marine environment with diverse natural ecosystems and sustainable human communities.

Description of Services

Stewards are “boots on the ground.” 

Through education, we connect people with the marine environment, inspiring them to take care of what they know and love. Stewards lead exploration activities for children and adults at state parks, county parks, schools, libraries, and events.

Through stewardship, we help marine species thrive. We clean up beaches, remove invasive species, plant native plants, restore habitats, explain dangers of pet waste, promote sustainable crabbing, and maintain interpretive signs.

Through 14 community science projects, we collect data for research by universities, tribes, and government. Following scientific protocols, trained volunteers augment professional workforces resulting in more data to accelerate research.
