Celebrating 40 Years of Impact
Since 1985, the Salt Ponds Coalition [SPC] has managed the Pond Watcher Program for Green Hill Pond. This non-profit is the official state-designated watershed group for the salt ponds region. With a mission to protect and enhance the health of the salt ponds for the benefit of wildlife and people, SPC manages 5 water testing sites on Green Hill Pond and a total of 27 testing sites in South County.

Green Hill Pond Watchers
Green Hill Salt Pond Watchers work with us to conduct water testing from May to October. We want to thank Green Hill Pond Watchers Joan Pavlinsky (Indigo Point), Tricia Heap (Teal Road), Ray Gradale (2 in pond sites) and Erma Russo (Sea Lea) for giving their personal time and energy for the 2025 testing season. Please thank these individuals when you see them for their volunteerism.
Financial support from Green Hill residents is needed. Without SPC, there would be no organization to monitor Green Hill Pond and provide essential data on the health of the pond to the state, Town of South Kingstown, and advocacy organizations like Friends of Green Hill Pond.
