Volunteer Spotlight: Brennan Johnston

“Brennan’s dedication to his volunteer role is comparable to that of a high paid employee. He prefers to work on the toughest projects we do and he always comes over prepared with the highest sense of enthusiasm and adventure. No matter the sacrifice, he is up for midnight runs into snow and rain storms for the sake of SYRCL River Science Department’s data collection efforts. I hope one day too, I can inspire others with my dedication and physical fitness as he did for me.” – Mo Loden, River Monitoring Coordinator read more >>
