Secchi Disk training

To all CLAMP volunteers and others who are interested...check out the link below!  It is from the Maine lake volunteer monitoring website.  It is a really cool way to test your skills at using a Secchi disk for measuring water clarity on different lakes.  Instructions are pretty easy to follow and should be a good way to practice for later this summer.  Good luck!
