SUMMARY:Deschutes River Corridor Volunteer Weed Pull
DESCRIPTION:Join the Coalition and the Deschutes National Forest for a morning pulling invasive plants. We’ll start with an overview of logistics and safety protocols\, and talk about the what and why of pulling invasive plants. Participants will be required to sign a release waiver with the US Forest Service. \nWhy pull invasive weeds: \n\nNoxious weeds invade a variety of habitats including agriculture and wildlands such as the National Forest.\nThey displace and compete with native vegetation\, thus reducing wildlife forage\, erosion control\, and overall watershed health.\nThe Bend/Ft. Rock District of the Deschutes National Forest has documented approximately 2\,300 acres of infestations. Some of these infestations are in our favorite places to recreate.\nWe need your help with controlling noxious weeds so we can continue to enjoy these special places!

SUMMARY:Power Hour: Community solar in Central Oregon
DESCRIPTION:RSVP HERE.\nJoin us at 5:00 to network and grab snacks and beer. The panel discussion will run from 5:30-6:30. The first 100 people in the door will receive a beer ticket. Other beverages will be available for purchase at the bar. \nOregonians overwhelmingly support solar energy\, but many face insurmountable obstacles to installing solar on their own rooftop\, such as shading\, roof capacity\, financing\, and not owning a home or living in an apartment. Community solar is an emerging model that reduces or eliminates many of these barriers. Community solar is defined as one or more solar photovoltaic energy systems that provide owners and subscribers the opportunity to share the costs and benefits associated with the generation of electricity. \nIn 2016\, the Oregon legislature passed Senate Bill 1547\, “Coal-to-Clean”\, placing Oregon among the few states with a community solar program. While some elements of the program are waiting to be defined\, community champions can and have begun to get predevelopment and feasibility underway. \nJoin us for this informative panel discussion and Q&A session to hear about community solar success stories in other states\, learn how the program is shaping up in Oregon\, and hear about projects that are getting started in other communities. \nThis will be an informative session for those who are interested in participating in the program whether for their residence\, business\, nonprofit or government building\, community members who want to help build momentum for a local project\, and/or those who are just curious to learn more! \nFollowing the panel\, the Worthy Garden Club Hopservatory will be open once the sun sets. \nPanelists will include: \n\nJon Miller\, Executive Director\, OSEIA (Oregon Solar Energy Industry Association)\nJaimes Valdez\, Policy Manager\, Spark Northwest\nBridget Callahan\, Energy Program Associate\, Sustainable Northwest\n\nThank you to our presenting sponsor for the Power Hour series\n \nThank you to our host and beverage sponsor \n\n \nThank you to our event partners \n\nPOWERpnw\nOSEIA (Oregon Solar Energy Industry Association\nSpark Northwest\nSustainable Northwest\n\nIf you’re interested in staying in the loop and getting an email a week before upcoming events\, you can join the Power Hour email list. Just be sure to check ‘Power Hour Events’ from the ‘I am interested in’ list.
