What is a watershed?
A watershed is an area of land drained by a common water body, such as a stream, river or lake.
Our watershed covers 2,563 square kilometres in an area roughly bounded by Kinmount to the north, Manilla to the west, Omemee to the east and Port Perry to the south. Five major lakes and five river or stream systems drain through this area.
