Friends of the Flint River Watershed Board of Directors

 

 

The Friends of the Flint River Watershed, Inc. (FFRW) Board of Directors reflects the collaborative nature of the organization. The FFRW Board is composed of individuals from educational institutions, local government, local businesses, environmental groups, and concerned citizens who feel strongly that the Flint River and its tributaries are vital resources we all need to protect from pollution. The Board meets on the third Friday of every month.
