Title: River Don Events
Post by: machar on July 17, 2012, 12:18:42 PM
Dear all
The River Don Trust is pleased to announce a series of exciting FREE events taking place this summer along the River Don Corridor. These events have been designed to encourage people into the corridor to see and experience first hand what this valuable part of the City has to offer.

The events have been developed and are being run by a series of organisations and range from walks to watersports and from the built to the natural history of the area. Most of the events have been developed in association with the Sustainable Urban Fringes Aberdeen project.

The event leaflet is attached in pdf format. It can also be downloaded using the following link:

The River Don Trust is providing a number of events in this programme which will allow people to understand more about the aquatic environments of the River Don.

We will be looking at aquatic invertebrates and teaching you the skills to capture and ID these minibeasts
We will also be carrying out electrofishing to find out what fish we have in the Don we willl stun, ID, record, handle and return all fish alive.

More information about the project can be found here:
