Salts and Sweets
Salt keeps sidewalks safe in winter, but it doesn’t stop at the curb. Once the snow melts, that salt moves into our rivers and lakes, where it can quietly cause real harm. Salts & Sweets is a low-pressure, drop-in event where you can learn how winter salt affects water quality and what actually works to reduce excess salt without sacrificing safety.
Stop by to explore MWMO’s smart salting exhibit, ask curious questions, and pick up practical tips you can use right away. There will be conversations with staff, simple take-home ideas, and a few limited Salt Smart mugs and traction grit available while supplies last. Come for a few minutes or stay awhile—either way, you’ll leave knowing more than you did when you arrived (and maybe a little less salty).
