Creeks and Kids Watershed Education Workshop

NOTE: Due to current funding cutbacks, the 2013 workshop has been cancelled.

The Creeks and Kids workshop benefits nature resource specialists, teachers and individuals interested in aquatic- watershed education and involvement programs. The workshop staff consists of a team of experienced classroom teachers, aquatic education specialists, and biologists who have been involved with Creeks and Kids for many years.

The goal of the workshop is to help participants acquire the knowledge, skills and confidence to use their local streams and watersheds as learning sites, another way to meet Oregon's education standards. Field experiences and classroom activities from The Stream Scene: Watersheds, Wildlife, and People, and Project WILD Aquatic are featured in the workshop. These, as well as many other innovative materials, are provided to each participant.
