SUMMARY:Youth Vote Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a a Youth Democracy Roundtable to foster a back-and-forth discussion between young Oregonians and our state decision makers. \nThis youth-led virtual event is your chance to hear from dynamic state and local elected officials on the work they do to strengthen democracy\, increase access to the ballot box\, and improve election transparency in Oregon and beyond. We’ll also demystify the voting process for new and soon-to-be voters. \nWe know it can be challenging for young people to make their voices heard or feel like they’re being taken seriously. Our goals with this event are to break down some of those barriers\, connect youth with lawmakers\, empower young people\, and talk about the ways Oregon can dream bigger in terms of making democracy more accessible to more people. \n\n\n\n\nRegister here!

SUMMARY:Deschutes River Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our largest annual day of stewardship\, the Deschutes River Cleanup on July 29th. River and riparian cleanup activities will take place along the riparian areas of the Deschutes River at six different stewardship sites: La Pine State Park\, Meadow Camp Picnic Area\, Farewell Bend Park\, Riverbend Park\, First Street Rapids Trail\, and Tumalo State Park. We would like to thank our partners at Oregon State Parks and Leave No Trace for helping make this incredible day of stewardship possible! \nCommunity volunteers of all ages are invited to pull invasive weeds\, remove litter from the stream banks\, and dive instream to pull debris out of the river itself. Thanks to volunteers’ hard work last year\, we removed approximately 2\,600 pounds of garbage and weeds from the Deschutes River and its sensitive riparian areas! We hope you can join us for another great day of stewardship this summer. \nRegister here!

SUMMARY:Stream Sampling on Whychus Creek
DESCRIPTION:Do you have an interest in supporting the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council as a community scientist? They invite you to join them for their annual Stream Sampling Days on Whychus Creek this August 10th or 11th!\n\nSampling the aquatic insect community in restoration project reaches allows our organization and partners to understand the habitat these projects are providing for aquatic critters like bugs and fish. Join on August 10th or 11th (or both!) to collect stream samples along Whychus Creek that will provide information about their restoration projects\, fish habitat\, and stream health. You’ll spend the day with a small team collecting samples from the stream on Deschutes Land Trust preserves and National Forest lands and will have the opportunity to learn about their restoration efforts and see less-visited reaches of the creek.\n\n\n\nPlease register below to volunteer for one day or both. For questions about Stream Sampling\, please contact Lauren Mork at lmork@restorethedeschutes.org \nThursday\, August 10th Registration\nFriday\, August 11th Registration

SUMMARY:Plastic-Free Back to School
DESCRIPTION:With summer winding down in the Northern Hemisphere\, it’s back-to-school time for many students. While back-to-school time is usually associated with plastic binders\, water bottles\, pens\, and other single-use plastics\, it’s possible to avoid a school year filled with toxic plastic—and Plastic Pollution Coalition will show you how. On August 17\, learn why reusable\, refillable\, non-plastic school supplies like stainless steel lunch boxes and food storage containers are better for student health\, the planet\, and wallets—and how to incorporate them into the school year. You will also discuss how schools can incorporate reusable\, plastic-free items and practices into their operations.
