Madison's Waters with Robin Leigh Kling ~ Join Master Naturalist Robin Leigh Kling to learn about Madison's Water and what we can do to protect it.  Human caused Climate Change is already increasing the frequency of extreme draughts, fires, storms, and flooding as we are seeing in Madison. What are the long term predictions for Madison's lakes?  What can we do to help reduce Climate Change impacts and costs?  In the near term, Clean Lakes, Friends groups and volunteers are helping to monitor the lakes, clean up and naturalize our waterways, and educate the public. Keeping leaves out of our lakes will help reduce algae blooms. Learn about using a SECCI disk and being a Citizen Scientist to help monitor water quality!  Along the way we will look for birds that depend on cleqn water and enjoy nature along the shoreline.

Enjoy nature in Tenney Park along Lake Mendota and the Yahara River Parkway bike path through the Madison Isthmus! Free, family-friendly walks at Tenney Park are held the first Saturday of each month, from 2:30-4pm and begin at the Tenney Beach parking lot, 1300 Sherman Avenue. Co-sponsored by Madison FUN Friends of Urban Nature, Madison Parks, Madison Audubon Society, Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood Association and Friends of the Yahara River Parkway.
