More than 60 years of Protecting Water & the Environment
The Stony Brook Millstone Watershed Association celebrated an important milestone in 2009 - our 60th Anniversary!

From our humble beginnings in 1949 when a handful of concerned citizens banded together to help fight soil erosion and promote environmentally sound land use practices, to the Watershed Association of today - making the "CASE" for clean water and the environment through Conservation, Advocacy, Science and Education - for six decades we've been protecting your water and your environment. We are your environmental voice.

With the loyal support of members and volunteers, we've evolved into one of the largest watershed associations in the state. Check out the Calendar of Events to see what's coming up. View our Historical Timeline to learn more about our accomplishments.
