The Greenbrier River should be
saved as a legacy. It is an
essential part of our lives that
enriches and inspires us.
The river watershed is a unique
ecosystem with rich varieties of
aquatic, riparian, and upland
wildlife, tributaries, farmland,
forest, people, and communities.
Our purpose is to promote the
maintenance, preservation, protection and
restoration of the ecological integrity
of the Greenbrier River and its watershed.

GRWA's new vista volunteer, Marcia Wilson-Cales,
is proving to be a valuable asset,
and will likely generate
some interesting watershed related news and actions.
Check back soon for updates on her activities and inititives, as there may be projects that will need volunteers to help collect data and access current watershed conditions.
We welcome book reviews that maybe of interest
to those interested in Watershed preservation issues.
