Friends of Lower Muskingum River puts on a variety of educational programs covering topics including ground water protection, aquatic ecosystems, aquatic macroinvertebrates, water cycle, soil and erosion and water quality monitoring.

Twelve foot wooden jon boat (or johnboat if you prefer) donated by board member Doug Albaugh. Doug's parents bought the boat from someone in the Marietta area in the early 1960's. It was inspected by Ohio River Museum historian Bill Reynolds. Bill says the boat is in excellent condition, was home-built by a very good craftsman, and is what he calls a flood boat. Flood boats were kept by many families along the river, for flood emergencies. We have washed it but not painted it, so as not to hide its true good condition. The oakum-packed seams are tight. The trailer is not included.
