About the Council

Since 2002, the Banklick Watershed Council has been a 501(c)(3) non-profit powered by dedicated community volunteers. We come together each month with a shared goal: to enhance the health of Banklick Creek and its surrounding watershed. Are you interested in water quality or broader environmental efforts? We're always looking for new members to join our mission! Reach out today to learn how you can get involved.

2025 Board Members:  Anna Kirschner (Chair), Larry Zembrodt (Vice Chair), Andy Videkovich (Treasurer), Claire Carlson (Secretary), Kevin Miller,  Anita D'Souza, Margaret Minzner, and Matt Wooten. 
Part-time Staff: Nicole Clements, Watershed Coordinator
