On a day when approximately 3000 students with teachers and education partners gathered data on the Hudson River the Autumn day was crisp, clear and windy! This event was all part of 'A Day in the Life of the Hudson River 2009', or more affectionately known as SNAPSHOT DAY! A blow out tide had left extensive mud flats in many sampling sites. Would this have any effect on the data collected?

Almanac Entry: Oct. 8th, 2009 - Garrison - The seventh grade students
from Garrison Union Free School stood in the sun along the riverside, sleeves pulled over their hands, this cool and breezy morning. The temperature was soon forgotten when a summer flounder dropped out of the net and splashed into our tray. He startled the small, dark naked goby we had placed in a nearby jar just moments before.
