Bike With Your Boots On
River des Peres Trail
We have an opportunity for people to get to know River des Peres and its water quality by bike riding with volunteers on the River des Peres Greenway trail along River des Peres and to observe and help trained volunteers conduct water quality measurements. Join us on June 22rd 9 AM. No experience in water quality testing is required but everyone must wear a bike helmet and bring their own bike. Be prepared to get your feet wet. Meet at Fultz Field in the River des Peres Park along River des Peres Rd, north of Gravois Road.
We will bike the length of the trail stopping at creek crossings to monitor the water quality using chemistry kits provided by Missouri Stream Team. We can use the data collected throughout the day to have a snapshot of the health of the River des Peres watershed.
Kids are welcome. Bring your chemistry water monitoring kit if you have one. Bring a water bottle and pencil. Be prepared to get your feet wet.
