Supporters Like You
“The Mystic River is my home. Over twenty years, I have become connected to it. I kayak on the river. I count herring at the Mystic Lake dam. I'm in the ‘giving back’ years, and I have been looking for ways that I can give to the river. I came to appreciate that MyRWA’s concerns were more than just fish and water quality, but had to do with people's access to the water. MyRWA's done a terrific job figuring out how to connect people along those various tangents but bring us back to the river as the core thread.”
