Cascade STEAM Citizen Science

Citizen Science is a Cascade STEAM Community Group with a focus on science and science-related community projects.

Calling all aspiring Citizen Scientists! Cascade STEAM is kicking off Citizen Science with a Community Project to understand and improve the stormwater monitoring for Bellingham. In this group you’ll learn about the techniques used by the City of Bellingham, Washington State Department of Ecology, and the local non-profit RE Sources to ensure Bellingham Bay is minimally impacted by stormwater run-off. To learn more see this great summary of the ReSources Stormwater Monitoring Project.

Cascade STEAM Programs are: “Free. Open to everyone. All are welcome. Family friendly. Bring your friends!”
