SUMMARY:Upper Deschutes Kayak Trip: Paddle with the Pros
DESCRIPTION:Got questions about the Deschutes? What better way to learn about the river than to paddle it with the pros? \nJoin the Coalition for the Deschutes and Tumalo Creek Kayak and Canoe (TCKC) for a water-based exploration of the Upper Deschutes. TCKC will provide transportation\, guides\, and the all the gear. Two local water experts\, Lisa Seales and Kyle Gorman\, will edify and entertain you with stories about how the Deschutes River works and is managed. Read their bios below. \nKyle Gorman is Region Manager for the South Central Region\, which includes the Deschutes\, Klamath and Lake Basins\, for Oregon Water Resources Department (OWRD). Kyle has BS in Geology from the University of Oregon. He worked as a geologist in Nevada before coming to Bend in 1990 to work for OWRD. Kyle says\, “I didn’t know that I was going to be in Water management but while working for Bob Main [Kyle’s predecessor]\, I realized this was a really important\, challenging but rewarding job and that you will never be bored or run out of things to do or address. And most of all that there is much work to be done in restoring streams in the Basin back to a more natural and improved state.” \nLisa Seales is an educator\, social scientist\, editor\, and writer with nearly 20 years of experience in the environmental field. Lisa has a BS in Geography and Environmental Studies from the University of Oregon\, and a PhD and MS in Interdisciplinary Ecology from the University of Florida\, with a focus on water resource management as well as tourism and outdoor recreation. Lisa has been researching\, teaching about\, and working on water issues in the Deschutes Basin for nearly a decade now.

SUMMARY:Stream Sampling on Whychus Creek
DESCRIPTION:Sampling benthic macroinvertebrates\, the aquatic life form of insects including mayflies and stoneflies\, provides important insights into the health of Whychus Creek. Volunteers will meet at Creekside Park in Sisters for a sampling training\, then\, in teams of two to four\, collect macroinvertebrate samples from sites along Whychus. This event is a great opportunity to learn about restoration and reintroduction of steelhead and salmon on Whychus Creek\, see less-visited reaches of the creek\, and contribute to knowledge about how restoration actions are changing stream conditions.

SUMMARY:22nd Annual Deschutes River Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:The Deschutes River Clean-Up is a special day for watershed stewards of all ages to give back to the river. The Upper Deschutes Watershed Council coordinates the Deschutes River Clean-Up each year to engage business partners\, river users\, and community members in hands-on stewardship activities on the Deschutes River.  Recreation use of the river has increased dramatically over the past few years and\, unfortunately\, so too has the amount of debris that ends up in the river. \nVolunteers will meet at Riverbend Park at 10:00 am for coffee\, pastries and instructions. River clean-up activities will take place in the Deschutes River and along its riparian areas between Slough Campground and Drake Park. \nBring your paddleboard\, kayak\, or canoe to help Central Oregon Diving divers pull garbage out of the river\, or help us pull invasive weeds and remove litter from the stream banks. \nSign up to volunteer!

SUMMARY:Tiny Explorers: Sounds of Nature
DESCRIPTION:Tiny Explorers encourages new parents to kickstart a healthy life enjoying the outdoors by getting their little ones outdoors starting at a young age.  The program is targeted at new families with infants and toddlers\, from birth to 3 years old. \n\n\nEach week has a different theme and we’ll explore the outdoors\, incorporating activities as we go. Parents will also learn safety tips for bringing little ones outdoors and more ideas for getting your family outside. Families with newborns to 3 year olds are welcome\, and older siblings are invited to attend. Activities will encourage exploration of the natural world\, connecting with our senses\, and play. The activities can be adapted for your child’s age and development\, and we’ll provide a space for families to network with each other. \nFamilies with newborns or infants that aren’t mobile should bring a baby carrier and blanket. Families that qualify for the Oregon Health Plan can access free baby carriers and other outdoor gear\, including a sunhat and sunscreen. \nThe program is offered as a 4-week series\, and families are welcome to attend as many events as they are able. \nProgram dates:  Thursdays\, July 5\, July12\, July 19\, and July 26.

SUMMARY:Whole Foods 5% Day
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars to shop at Whole Foods Market on October 17th to support school gardens across Oregon! Whole Foods has designated the Oregon Farm to School & School Garden Network as the beneficiary for 5% of sales at ALL stores in Oregon on October 17th!  As the Central Oregon Regional School Garden Education Hub\, we are excited to support this statewide community giving. Funds they raise will go towards putting on the 2020 Oregon Farm to School and School Garden Conference\, (which our staff plan to attend) and supporting the work of regional hubs – that’s us! \nMultiple times a year we gather local garden educators and teachers wishing to incorporate garden based education into their work with youth. OFSSGN has funding to support 1 regional gathering a year\, but we work to bring educators together in different locations for trainings\, resource shares and school garden tours multiple times a year. By supporting OFSSGN you are supporting our ability to convene our local Garden Educator Network and enrich the work they do on the ground at school across Central Oregon.
