The Council meets the first Wednesday of each month at 7pm at 2550 Hillsboro Highway.
Our council and community volunteers are excited about, and invested in, the restoration of the 15 acre county-owned Gales Creek property — a high priority sub-basin for the council. Council volunteers, Cub Scouts, high school and university students, and contracted crews have focused on invasive plant removal and establishment of native plant species that benefit native fish and wildlife and reduce high stream temperatures. The council is aggressively working with potential funding sources to accomplish direct stream improvements such as channel improvements, placement of large woody debris, and other actions that will improve fish habitat and protect the watershed.
Community volunteers mulch newly planted native trees and shrubs at the Gales Creek site.
