Herring Count underway: help needed!
We have started to see more fish moving up the fish ladder at Elm Street, but we still could use more volunteers, especially on the weekends. The process is simple, fun, and just takes 10 minutes. As we continue to work on restoration of the Jones River, it is critical that we have a thorough understanding of the present condition. This allows us to estimate the potential for a herring comeback and helps us assess the success of our programs. Your help is essential!
Shifts are during these time blocks: 7-11am, 11am-3pm, or 3-7pm daily. The count runs through April and May. If you would like to participate in this year's effort please email us at
