Becoming a Master Watershed Steward BY FRANCINE FULTON

Teaching adults and children about the environment, monitoring water quality and participating in stream cleanups are just some of the activities of the Master Watershed Stewards (MWS), a volunteer program of Penn State Extension. Applications are currently being accepted for the spring 2024 MWS training classes, which will run from March to June, with separate dates for Berks, Lancaster and Chester counties.

According to Erin Frederick, statewide MWS coordinator, training topics will include flooding, drinking water, wastewater treatment, plastic pollution, water chemistry, restoration projects, native plants and the implications of land uses on the watershed. “We cover a lot,” she said, noting that optional field trips are also offered. In exchange for 40 hours of instruction, candidates must agree to contribute 20 hours of volunteer service their first year, followed by 20 hours of volunteer See Watershed Steward pg 5

when it is convenient for them. “When we have an assignment, we will reach out and send an email to the volunteers. It will say someone needs transportation on this date and time and ask if they are available,” Gifford explained. “ You don’t have to commit to a regular schedule, although you could. You would be contacted each time, and you can say ‘yes’ or ‘no.’” Gifford said that while the volunteer opportunity is ideal for retired residents, all drivers are welcome to provide the service. She added that volunteers have been used by the agency for several years. “We got out of (using volunteer drivers) during COVID, but now there is more need,” she stated.

SILVER JEWELRY,

After Harry Beauchamp of Lititz graduated from Manheim Township High School in 2015, he decided to take a break from his academic career to explore new opportunities. He wasn’t exactly sure what he wanted to pursue for a career, but he began working at Lancaster General Hospital as he considered different options during his gap year. Beauchamp’s job at the hospital entailed moving equipment and doing general housekeeping tasks. During his breaks, he started to watch episodes of a television show that follows reallife first responders in New Orleans, and it sparked an interest in Beauchamp that would grow into a passion for firefighting. Today, Beauchamp is a volunteer firefighter at the Willow Street Fire Company, and he works full time as an emergency medical technician and firefighter in Parkesburg and Kennett Square. Beauchamp started his career by completing a training course offered through a partnership between Pennsylvania College of Health Sciences and Lancaster EMS. In the first portion of the accelerated program, Beauchamp studied human anatomy and medical science. Once the classes were completed, he trained in the field to learn about patient assessment and other skills necessary to respond to an ambulance call. Beauchamp worked in Lancaster for two years before finding work in Chester County, where most emergencies are handled by first responders who serve as both EMTs and firefighters. “I never had any doubts about becoming a first

Beauchamp’s passion for his field isn’t limited to fighting fires and responding to emergencies. Beauchamp frequently takes pictures of fire stations and their trucks, a hobby that he acquired shortly after becoming a firefighter himself. Beauchamp’s job as an EMT often took him near Conestoga Fire Company, and he liked to capture shots of the fire trucks when they left the station. In 2020, Beauchamp upgraded his camera and officially created a Facebook page for his pictures. Since then, he has traveled to Mountville, Millersville and numerous other towns across the county to capture local fire stations and their equipment. Beauchamp has even traveled to other parts of Pennsylvania and its surrounding states to photograph fellow firefighters. “I started visiting as many departments as I could for pictures, but I loved being able to connect with others

also include organizing educational events, designing demonstration rain gardens and planting live stakes to prevent stream bank erosion. According to the Penn State Extension, live stakes are branches of trees that are cut while the trees are dormant.

You can choose what you want to do based on your time and your interests.” A volunteer portal is offered so that those who complete the program may register their hours. “It is important to keep track of your volunteer hours. That’s how we showcase our impact to our stakeholders and how we keep our program going,” said Frederick. “(For example), you can report the number of trees you planted. Since we started the program (in 2012) Master Watershed Stewards have planted 75,000 trees in Pennsylvania.” Rebecca Hayden, president of the Watershed Coalition of the Lehigh Valley, added that volunteer opportunities may
