FOCJCW has chosen the Cabin John Bridge as a symbol in the FOCJCW logo, because a "watershed" is defined as the entire drainage basin that flows to a given point, and the historic Cabin John Bridge (built in 1863)  is located at the geographic point where all the water of the Cabin John CreekWatershed flows out of its watershed and into the Potomac River.

Cabin John Creek is located in Montgomery County, Maryland. The creek flows through the communities of Rockville, Bethesda, Potomac and Cabin John and drains to the Potomac River and the Chesapeake Bay.

The Friends of Cabin John Creek Watershed is a volunteer citizen group dedicated to the restoration, preservation and stewardship of the watershed. We invite you to explore this website to learn about the watershed and our activities.
