We all live in a watershed, an area that drains to a common point, such as a stream, lake, estuary, wetland, aquifer, or even the ocean — and our individual actions can directly affect it.

Videographer Mark Dawson has created an fascinating YouTube collection of videos titled Save the White River. The videos are meant to entertain and educate viewers on the beauty of the free-flowing White River in Anderson and Madison County, and communicate his personal opposition to the proposed reservoir. His work speaks eloquently for us all.
We support and partner with other environmental and recreation organizations that seek to protect and preserve our waterways, and the watersheds in which we live.
