Carolyn Shubert, land and water stewardship manager for Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust, was recognized recently by Maine Lakes for her work as a champion for water quality in the Pemaquid River system. As part of the organization’s 50th Anniversary celebration, Maine Lakes “is recognizing 50 Maine Lakes Heroes who have worked hard to keep our lakes and ponds clean and clear.” Shubert began working at Pemaquid Watershed Association in 2012, and stayed with the organization when it joined with Damariscotta River Association in 2019 to become Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust. Her responsibilities have included coordinating volunteers, providing outreach, overseeing trail stewardship, and managing water quality programs such as swim beach monitoring, Invasive Plants Patrol, LakeSmart, and Courtesy Boat Inspections.
