Smithers Creek Watch is a hands-on citizen-science program training residents to monitor, protect, and restore Smithers Creek. Through water sampling, Stream Selfies, youth learning, and community cleanups, we’re building a stronger, data-driven understanding of our watershed, and empowering neighbors to take the lead in caring for it.

Smithers Creek Watch trains neighbors to test water, document creek and tap water conditions, and respond to environmental threats through partnerships with SciStarter, CitSci, and local libraries, including the Montgomery, WV Public Library.
We combine simple tools, real data, and community pride to protect the creek that runs through all of us.
This project is proudly supported by the WV Rivers Coalition's Community Action Mini Grant Program, whose investment is helping us launch community-led monitoring right here in the Upper Kanawha Valley.
