Extension educators will lead the events that will focus on local streams, parks, ponds, forests and more.
Each session will have a capacity of 25 people, and coronavirus pandemic safety measures will be observed. Most sessions will cost $5 per person.
The eight programs will be:
Walk with Watershed Stewards, in which a master watershed steward will lead the walk and discuss critters found in streams, identify local flora and fauna, and discuss ways to enhance or protect the streams.

Letter: Restore wetlands, riparian areas By Jim Comrada, Vancouver

I have a background in fisheries biology and botany from the University of Washington and have been a horticultural professional for 50 years. I worked as a horticulturist for Portland Parks for 10 years, then worked at the Clark County Corrections native plant nursery at the Mabry Center for five years. Finally, I worked as a wetland ecologist for an environmental consulting firm for five years doing wetland delineations, wetland mitigation design, planting, and monitoring and am now retired and almost 71 years old. I taught native plant ID for WSU Clark County Extension when they had a Watershed Stewards program.
