Join us in protecting the the Nanticoke River from the pressures of sprawl development and the increasing population of the watershed.  Our efforts focus on enforcing regulations that have been put in place to protect the Nanticoke River from run-off and pollution.

​

Your membership is like a vote.  When we weigh in on legislation the Friends of the Nanticoke River membership numbers carry the importance of our message to the legislators and decision-makers.

 

Our members pro-actively monitor and participate in regular "clean-ups" of public access areas to the river, oyster restoration, tree planting, and other projects.

 

We advocate for thoughtful recreational and commercial use of the river's resources and provide educational and legal resources to communities dealing with watershed related issues.
