Rouge River Stonefly Search
January 24, 2026
Event Navigation
Help Friends of the Rouge assess the health of the river by joining in the search for special aquatic insects that emerge from streams in the winter as part of a long term monitoring program.
Volunteers meet at a central location and meet their pre-assigned team. Each team carpools out to two separate sites and samples under the direction of a trained team leader. Volunteers help to look for the bugs brought to them on the bank.
This is an all day outdoor event. Pre-registration required; Children eight and above welcome with a participating adult; Groups up to five.
