The dirty knees will say it all - our Watershed Warriors program truly allows your child the chance to connect with nature.

We’ll venture from our drop-off and pick-up point across from the Mill Valley Public Safety Building on Hamilton Drive to points all along Richardson Bay. We’ll clean up trash from the marsh and learn to keep our watershed clean - for us and for all of the creatures who call it home. We'll work with Marin County Parks on a service project too!
