Volunteer Spotlight:
We would like to thank Ann DeSanctis for her year of service as a Chesapeake Conservation

volunteer here at the Anacostia Watershed Society.  Ann has been an integral part
of the Education Team, engaging over 1,000 students in our three-part service learning
program. She has led a variety of different activities ranging from canoe trips 
to wetland plantings to interactive classroom visits at local schools. She also 
spearheaded an innovative Storm Drain Painting Project in Mt. Rainier, Maryland,
 engaging local artists and students to paint storm drains to raise awareness about
stormwater.
"Over the past year I have learned new skills, met an incredible array of people,
and truly felt like I was making a difference in the watershed."
