Florida Lakewatch, a 40-year-old lake-monitoring program, trains local residents to collect water samples from lakes, rivers, and springs. Volunteers like retired chiropractor Jeanne Sellers contribute by taking samples from Lake Padgett, aiding in water quality management and environmental conservation efforts. The program, supported by the University of Florida, is one of the largest in the nation, with over 1,800 trained citizens monitoring various water bodies.
