VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
The Alewife Project relies
entirely on volunteers to conduct the annual fish count. This
project is a huge undertaking, and we need lots of help to ensure
that accurate data is gathered!
FISH COUNTERS:
Volunteer fish counters
work 2-hour shifts counting alewives from a platform below the Mill
St. bridge in Waldoboro. This is a great opportunity to witness the
spring alewife run and help out with a really neat project!
COUNT
SUPERVISORS:
We are looking for volunteer supervisors who can meet new volunteers at the counting station, pick up equipment at the end of the day, and be on call in case anything goes wrong.
NET CLEANING:
The net will need to be cleaned daily, and we are looking for volunteers who can help with this task.
To sign up, or for more information
about any of these tasks or how you can get involved, contact
Stewart DesMeules at 832-5570 or
volmvlt@midcoast.com.
The
fish count volunteer schedule is now
online!
Check it out to see which shifts are available.
Volunteers counters are critical to the success of the Alewife
Project.

alewife count numbers
from the 2007, 2008, and 2009 runs!
