Welcome to the Central Wisconsin TU Riverkeeper Project


Located in Central Wisconsin, Central Wisconsin’s RiverKeepers is a “waders-on, environmental” group that monitors local rivers and streams in six central Wisconsin counties—Fond du Lac, Green Lake, Marquette, Waushara, Waupaca and Winnebago.

On a monthly basis throughout the summer, this dedicated group of volunteers monitors some of your favorite rivers and streams within these counties.

They share their findings and knowledge through Central Wisconsin RiverKeepers chapter reports, and an on-line database! Our main focus is providing our visitors a first-class experience in education, conservation, and fun.

We plan to use this website as a way to keep everyone informed about the water monitoring activities in these counties. We'll also let you know about any changes in local watersheds that we witness while we’re “in the field.”

Watch for postings by some of the team leaders, upcoming events and education programs. Additionally, you can post your comments here, too.



We hope you've enjoyed this introduction to the Central Wisconsin RiverKeepers!
