The Home Waters Chapter of Trout Unlimited
Caring for and recovering New York State and Rensselaer County rivers and the trout that call them home
SEE OUR IMPACT!
From the Walloomsac River to the Kinderhook Creek and beyond, the Home Waters Chapter of Trout Unlimited brings people together to care for and recover their waters through local conservation and community science projects. We are making our Brook and Brown trout populations stronger, our water cleaner, and our communities healthier.
JOIN US LOCALLY!
The Home Waters Chapter is based here in Rensselaer County and holds a range of fun, free and family-friendly events and activities. Whether you swing by a social event or presentation, spend time on the water fishing with us, or get your hands dirty volunteering on a local project, all are welcome!
SUPPORT OUR WORK!
Whether you become a member, make a donation, sign up for an event, or volunteer to help the chapter succeed, the Home Waters Chapter counts on people like you who care about conservation to make a difference for our rivers close to home and across the country!
A LOCAL COMMUNITY OF CONSERVATIONISTS!
When you take part in Home Waters Chapter activities, you are helping drive conservation of New York State and Rensselaer County rivers and streams. The same rivers that sustain trout bring clean water into our homes, give life to vibrant communities, and feed a passion for the outdoors.
Our rivers and our fisheries face enormous challenges. At Trout Unlimited, we are doing something about it.
Working together as volunteers and with TU staff and partners in our Priority Waters, we advocate for our rivers, restore our stream habitat, plant native trees, help connect kids to the outdoors and so much more.
We are a community of optimists who have a ton of fun along the way. Whether you are passionate about wild and native fish, inspired by the wonder of our rivers, or dedicated to clean water, we invite you to be a part of our mission. Be a champion for the rivers we all love and help us unlock the unlimited power of conservation.
