Cacapon River Stewardship Guide

A beautiful 20 page Cacapon River Stewardship Guide was created in 2019 by The Friends of the Cacapon River. Thanks to a generous grant the WVDEP Stream Partners Program, this guide is available in both digital and print copies. It contains many great tips, photographs and helpful information for those who own or care about land in the Cacapon River watershed.

Water Reporter

Friends of the Cacapon will use the Water Reporter app as a critical tool in support of our Keep the Cacapon Clean campaign.

Water Reporter users join an online community of individuals and organizations working to map and protect their local water resources. Developed by Chesapeake Commons, this mobile application for Android and iPhone has been deployed nationwide in dozens of watersheds as a way of crowd-sourcing geo-referenced images of waterways, and reporting water quality threats in real-time.
