Join us for a FREE bus tour featuring places to recreate and how to protect your watershed!

Tonawanda Creek is one of the largest watershed areas in Western , spanning portions of Wyoming, Genesee, Niagara and Erie Counties, and the Tonawanda Seneca Nation. The watershed is full of places to boat, hike, and fish. Hard work has helped protect these places and our drinking water. The bus tour will show- case places to recreate in the watershed and also watershed management challenges and successes!

Because the watershed covers over 600 square miles, two separate bus tours will take place.
