The Watershed Foundation invites the community to visit a new exhibit celebrating the local watershed.
From now until the end of May, visitors are encouraged to stop by the North Webster Community Center to view the winning photo display from TWF’s 2023 Picture Your Watershed Photo Contest. The display is featured in the hallway adjacent to the TWF Office in the northwest corner of the North Webster Community Center, according to a news release from TWF.
“Captured by talented photographers from our very own community, these captivating images showcase the diverse landscapes, vibrant wildlife and serene waters that make our watershed truly special,” said Lyn Crighton, executive director of The Watershed Foundation. “Each photograph tells a unique story, offering viewers a glimpse into the awe-inspiring wonders that surround us.”
“Whether you're an avid nature enthusiast, a photography aficionado or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of our natural world, this exhibit promises to inspire and delight,” said Crighton. “It's an opportunity to connect with our environment on a deeper level and gain a newfound appreciation for the precious resources that sustain us all.”
The North Webster Community Center is open to the public Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon. It is closed on Sundays.
TWF was founded in 1997 to protect and improve water quality in the upper Tippecanoe River Watershed, spanning from Crooked Lake in Whitley County to the Warsaw and Winona Lake area. During the past 26 years, TWF has worked with farmers and lake residents to implement more than 325 water quality improvement projects in Whitley, Noble and Kosciusko counties.
