Who are We?

Picture
We are a group of colleagues determined to change the way our community feels about the Wicomico River through collecting and presenting information, and encouraging residents to enjoy the Wicomico River. Each of us finishing our degrees in Environmental Studies at Salisbury University. As a group of 13, we gathered, researched, and collectively brought together information in hopes of bringing the Wicomico community together as a whole in order to establish a sense of stewardship. 
We, the Wicomico River Stewardship Initiative, have worked diligently to provide information and inspiration for the community in hopes that they will come together and become an active community on the river, by promoting stewardship and ultimately concern for the environmental impacts from human presence. Through the help of our professor, Dr. Michael Lewis and many local organizations we have been inspired to create this website in hopes that the public will value this river as much as we do.
