Our Creeks, Our Selves: Watershed Tour of Rock and Bronson Creeks

Our creeks are the stories of ourselves. Their health, flow, and wildlife they support all reflect the human state, past and present. Join the Rock Creek Watershed Partners as we explore the state of Rock and Bronson Creeks on Saturday, June 17^th from 10am to 1pm. The headwaters of these creeks begin in the slopes draining Skyline Blvd and the west hills and wind their way down through Hillsboro and Beaverton. They flow through agricultural, forested, and urbanized areas. On our tour, we’ll discuss cultural and natural history, wildlife, watershed health, and ways to enjoy our natural areas through recreation. We will start and end at Portland Community College-Rock Creek Campus. We will be outside walking on relatively stable and even terrrain. Bring water and any snacks. Suggested $5 donation, or gas donation to drivers. Advance registration required; call 503-629-6305 x2953 or email awilson@rcwp.org  Other scheduled tours are Willow and Cedar Mill Creeks on July 15 and Beaverton and Beaverton’s Johnson Creeks on August 19.
