The Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council, based in Petoskey, Michigan, is committed to safeguarding Northern Michigan’s water resources, including lakes, streams, wetlands, and groundwater. Their initiatives encompass advocacy, education, water quality monitoring, research, and restoration efforts. In May 2024, the Council unveiled the Ruth Tucker Ayers Harris Watershed Discovery Center at their headquarters in downtown Petoskey. This interactive educational space offers hands-on experiences designed to deepen visitors’ understanding of freshwater ecosystems. The Discovery Center features several engaging exhibits: • Aquatic Life Displays: Aquariums housing native species such as lake sturgeon, Arctic grayling, and lake whitefish, some of which are part of local reintroduction programs.  • Watershed Simulator: An augmented reality sandbox that demonstrates how water flows across various landscapes, illustrating the formation and function of watersheds.  • Stream Tank: A display showcasing macroinvertebrates like caddisfly larvae, offering insights into the organisms that inhabit local streams and their roles in the ecosystem. The Center serves as a valuable resource for both students and the general public, fostering a deeper connection to the environment and promoting stewardship of Northern Michigan’s water resources. For more information or to plan a visit, you can contact the Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council at (231) 347-1181 or explore their offerings online.
