Wishing Northeast Texas Trailblazer, Delores McCright, a Smooth Recovery
Delores McCright has been leading Texas Stream Team efforts in Northeast Texas since its inception 29 years ago. To a group of people, Delores is someone that trained and introduced you to the world of water quality monitoring. Whether you know her or not - at Texas Stream Team - Delores is regarded as a Rockstar! Delores has recently undergone life changing medical hurdles and we wanted to take this time to acknowledge her beautiful spirit, her community efforts and involvement with Texas Stream Team, and to ask our Texas Stream Team community to keep her in your thoughts and well wishes.
Delores has been highlighted on numerous citizen scientist spotlights and was honored as the first to receive the Texas Stream Team’s Golden Secchi Award at our 2018 Stream Team Fest. Delores has reached more than 300 people and maintains 30 active monitoring sites for the Texas Stream Team program so in this newsletter, we are highlighting all the wonderful people Delores has reached to advance our mission.
From us all at Texas Stream Team - Thank you for being an integral part of our organization, and we hope you get well soon!
