Event Series Birding by the River

Birding by the River

Wenatchee River Institute 347 Division Street, WA, United States

This is a great opportunity to learn about eBird, the largest biodiversity-related community science project in the world, and utilize it to record our observations of local wild birds. Total walking distance is ½ mile, over a gravel path with two moderate hills. Come prepared for the weather. These walks will happen on the second Wednesday of each month for the whole year. Join us for as many as you can!

Trail is wide enough for ADA access, but trails are gravel

Meet outside the River Haus at 8am and plan to be finished by 9:30am. This is a FREE event and no registration is needed.

International Mountain Day @ Wenatchee River Institute

Wenatchee River Institute 347 Division Street, WA, United States

Join local mountain enthusiasts and stewardship organizations of the East Central Cascades as we organize in celebration of International Mountain Day. Since 2003, this day has been celebrated worldwide to raise awareness of the importance of mountains, highlights both opportunities and challenges of mountain development, and builds alliances that brings positive change for mountain communities and ecosystems. The event begins at 2:00 p.m. with a critical mass-style community trail run in Waterfront Park departing from the WRI Red Barn. At 3:00 p.m., doors open for an afternoon of inspiring short films, presentations by local groups, and an action panel with organization leadership where we will discuss how we can better collaborate to care for our local mountains. Hot drinks and snacks will be provided! Attendees will leave with fresh inspiration, a deeper understanding of mountains’ global significance, and ideas for getting involved locally.

This event is hosted by the Wenatchee River Institute in collaboration with Leavenworth Mountain Association, Indigenous Roots and Reparation Foundation, Wenatchee Valley TREAD and the Kilan Jornet Foundation.

Registration required.
