Organizations register in January to receive a Recognition Package to award to a deserving member of their organization.&nbsp;Each Recognition Package contains a Certificate of Recognition and a $50 gift card to Hidden Habitat native plant nursery in Kilworthy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A list of organizations that participated in 2022 along with the names of recipients and their efforts to protect our watersheds is now available on the MWC <a href=\"http:\/\/www.muskokawatershed.org\/blog\/2022-dcsrp-recipients\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">website<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MWC would like to thank all organizations for their participation in the inaugural year and making the program a success. More importantly, MWC would like to thank all of the recipients for their outstanding efforts to protect our watersheds and leading by example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Doug Cross Stewardship Recognition Program is named after Doug Cross, a former MWC member that spearheaded a number of communications initiatives for MWC. Mr. Cross passed away in 2020, leaving behind a legacy of volunteerism for various community and environmental initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Doug Cross Stewardship Recognition Program will return for 2023 with registration opening January 1<sup>st<\/sup>.
