Presented by Collete Streight, Executive Director of Friends of Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument

Join Friends of Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument Executive Director, Collette Streight, as she shares about the Monument (A national treasure in our backyard!) and the work the Friends is doing to support its protection and restoration. She will share about the Friends’ upcoming Beaver Scavenger Hunt to be held on June 1, 2024. This big volunteer event will support efforts to increase beaver populations in the Monument by providing baseline data about where the beavers are now and what they are doing. Waterways under beaver management create healthy and vibrant habitats for wildlife including birds.
