Sawmill Run Stream Study

2950 Pohopoco Dr., Lehighton, PA 18235-8905

Free Event

Join the park naturalist as we explore what lives in the creek! We'll search for macroinvertebrates, which are very important indicators of water quality. We'll catch, observe, and release macroinvertebrates and other stream critters. Nets and containers will be provided. Participants should wear waterproof boots, water shoes, or shoes that can get wet.

We will be meeting at the Sawmill Trail parking lot for this program.

*Rain will cancel the program

 Directions from Beltzville State Park:

Turn left out of the park’s main entrance. Proceed past the Army Corps of Engineers building & go approximately 1 mile. Look for a Big Creek Grange sign on the left. Turn LEFT onto Grange Road. At the bottom of the hill, turn LEFT onto Old Mill Road. You will pass 3 houses on the left. After the last house, turn LEFT into the Sawmill Trail parking lot. PLEASE NOTE - The entrance to the Sawmill Trail parking lot is unmarked. If you proceed over the small bridge, you went TOO FAR!  

*Registration is required, as group size is limited. Please register each individual attending, separately.
