Happy fish make for a Happy Valley! That’s why the Clackamas County Water Environment Services (WES), Clackamas River Basin Council (CRBC) and SOLVE have joined forces to get you involved in improving water quality and fish habitat in Rock Creek. Take advantage of the rare opportunity to explore this beautiful natural area at a key juncture where it flows into the Clackamas River, normally closed to the public, for a day of education and exploration. Participants will tour new in-stream construction and restoration work, and engage in hands-on learning at four education stations on soil, water quality, fish habitat and plant care. Donuts provided! The Rock Creek Confluence Project was funded by Clackamas County Water Environment Services, Metro’s 2006 Natural Areas bond measure, Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board, The Nature Conservancy’s PGE Habitat Fund, and the Clackamas River Basin Council’s Shade Our Streams program.
