Upcoming Events

Who's ready for a workday? Join the Bettendorf Conservation Committee in weeding and mulching the Pollinator Garden and getting it ready for seeding. There is also the possibility of helping create a path through the garden, if the garden is ready! 

We do recommend wearing long pants, long sleeves, sturdy shoes, sun protection, and water to keep you hydrated. Volunteers can also bring their own garden gloves and garden trowels if desired, but tools will be provided. 

All elementary age children must be accompanied by an adult.

Join Partners of Scott County Watersheds for the Fall Snapshot Volunteer Water Quality Monitoring Event! This is your opportunity to become a citizen scientist for the day and gather important data about the health of Scott County's watersheds. The valuable data gathered by volunteers will assist PSCW in implementing water quality improvement projects in the county. No experience is necessary, and anyone is welcome to participate!

Get down and dirty in Silver Creek! Join Partners of Scott County Watersheds and the City of LeClaire as we remove trash from in and around the stream.

Volunteers will meet at the gravel parking lot off of 3rd Street, across from the Veterans Memorial Skatepark. We will split into three groups to tackle the trash; one working upstream, one downstream, and one along 3rd Street.

Join the Friends of Fairmount Cemetery and Prairie in clearing invasive brush around the crypts and remnant prairie; one of the largest original prairie remaining in Scott County. 

We do request volunteers to wear long pants, sturdy shoes, hats, and bug spray are encouraged. Lopping shears, hand saws, and gloves will be provided.
