Watermark with Rachel Schoeler

North Saskatchewan Riverkeeper is excited to be partnering in the Watermark Project in 2016!The Watermark Project is a digital archive that preserves and protects Canada’s water heritage through storytelling. It acts both as a registry for the waters that Canadians love to use, as well as a unique clearinghouse for people’s powerful and personal experiences on those waterbodies.Check out this awesome video featuring a Watermark from Rachel Schoeler with our friends at Fraser Riverkeeper in Vancouver, BC. Back in August of 2014, Rachel took on the challenge of swimming solo across the Georgia Strait without a wet-suit to raise awareness of recreational water quality issues; becoming the first woman in over 40 years to make the crossing! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2d1oFilTJ8Be sure to keep an eye on our blog for news about the launch of the Watermark Project website and more Watermarks from North Saskatchewan Riverkeeper's Directors and other great Canadian water leaders coming in the new year! Source: Fraser Riverkeeper - http://www.fraserriverkeeper.ca/watermark_rachel_schoeler
