The Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay, in partnership with Timmons Group and SRRN Games, have produced a Facebook game, Stormwater Sentries, designed to educate the public about how their actions impact local streams, rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay.

Game players take on missions to clean up trash, pick up after their pet, plant native trees, shrubs, flowers and rain gardens, reduce impervious surfaces, install rain barrels, and more environmental related activities.
As missions are completed, the player sees water quality improve in the local stream and they qualify for advanced missions to restore the stream buffer to provide a habitat for wildlife.
