2025 Sampling Events
Kentucky Watershed Watch encourages all samplers to collect monitoring data during three annually coordinated events. Samplers have a one-month window during each of these events to collect and submit their data.

Sampler Training Workshops
Interested samplers should attend an in-person training workshop after completing the online training content to become certified Kentucky Watershed Watch samplers. These sessions offer an opportunity for new participants to practice sampling techniques and discuss logistical considerations with the trainer.
