The Cayuga Lake Watershed Network has found a new home.
Wells College President Lisa Marsh Ryerson announced the network will move from their current base in Interlaken to the college in Aurora, setting up shop at Zabriskie Hall on Aug. 1.
This moves further solidifies a partnership between the two entities, which began several years ago with Biology and Environmental Studies professors Thomas Vawter and Niamh O'Leary participating in the network and its partner group, the Cayuga Lake Watershed Intermunicipal Organization.
"This is an exciting time in the history of our relationship with the Cayuga Lake Watershed Network," Ryerson said in a news release. "Wells has been actively involved with the network for a number of years, and we are delighted that they will bring their headquarters to Aurora. I look forward to welcoming my network friends and colleagues to the Wells campus, and am excited about continuing our collaboration as we seek ways to protect one of our most valuable regional assets -- Cayuga Lake."
The network, founded in 1998 in Ithaca, is dedicated to protecting and improving the ecological health, economic vitality and beauty of the watershed through education, communication and leadership, according to the release.
"I am delighted to have this opportunity to expand our services and move to the Aurora and Wells community," CLWN treasure and founding director Bill Shaw said in the release. "We look forward to enhanced collaboration with the broader community and are deeply grateful for Wells' generosity and support of our programs."

The only tenuous connection I can make is that of the recent articles on pharmaceuticals being among the pollutants in our water? "
