SUMMARY:Winter Wilderness Survival
DESCRIPTION:This event is presented by Pybus University \nDate and Time: Tue\, November 19\, 2019 7:00 PM – 8:15 PM PST \nLocation: 7 North Worthen Street Wenatchee\, WA 98801 \nThis event is free. \nEver wondered what you would do if you were lost on a late-fall hike and it started to snow? Want to learn how to explore the winter beauty of North Central Washington safely? From essential gear for a hike to winter camping\, this class will inform and educate you about the 10 Essential Systems for Wilderness Survival. During the course members of the Chelan County Volunteer Search and Rescue (CCVSAR) will be giving a demonstration with rescue dogs to show how they search for live people using an item with human scent on it. The dogs can be a useful tool to help searchers locate human scent in wilderness settings. Hours of consistent training go into preparing a dog and handler for certification in various search disciplines. See that hard work in person! \nCCVSAR is a volunteer public safety organization\, funded by its members\, grants\, and donations from the public. If you’re lost in the woods or injured on a hike or on the hunt\, it’s our job to find you and bring you home safely. \nOur mission is to: Train for and respond to Search & Rescue emergencies; searching for the lost\, and rescuing the injured in urban and wilderness locations. Train for and respond to natural and man-made disasters to locate and rescue the injured\, trapped\, and missing. Conduct evacuation notifications during wildfires. Educate the public about backcountry safety and emergency preparedness. Find more information here http://www.ccvsar.org/ \nThis class is instructed by Nate Fussleman and Nick Wood. \nNate Fusselman’s Bio: \nI spent 18 years as a USMM and I spent a lot of my time home out in the woods. I started teaching survival 3 years ago and joined CCVSAR 2 years ago. I am a ground unit member and instruct new members in outdoor survival. \nNick Wood’s Bio: \nCurrently I am the Ground Unit Leader and Team Lead for CCVSAR. I joined the organization 3 years ago.

SUMMARY:Guilt Trip: a Climate Change Film with a Skiing Problem
DESCRIPTION:Guilt Trip: a climate change film with a skiing problem\, showing in the Wenatchee River Inst. Red Barn \nDouble feature night in the Wenatchee River Institute’s Red Barn on Wed.\, Nov. 20th\, 7-8:30PM. The evening kicks off with the film Guilt Trip\, a climate change film with a skiing problem. Stunning photography\, glacial science\, and backcountry\, high-elevation skiing\, all in one film! \nThe Salomon Freeski TV crew and professional skiers Chris Rubens\, Kalen Thorien\, Simon Thomson\, Pierre Muller\, traveled to Greenland with Professor Alun Hubbard\, in hopes of learning about climate change firsthand. Hubbard\, a renowned glaciologist\, joined the crew to collect data on the Greenland ice sheet. The group of skiers soon learned that the only thing greater than their desire to claim a first ski descent on Greenland’s second highest peak\, was the size of their carbon footprint traveling there and they became loaded with guilt \nMont Forel was the expedition’s main objective\, and the second highest peak in Greenland sitting on the line between mountains to the east and the open ice sheet to the west. Alun collected ice core samples from Greenland’s ice sheet to help determine if the ice is melting at high elevations –something it should not be doing. \nDOUBLE Feature! The second film\, recently premiering at the Banff Film Festival\, is about one man’s adventures in electric car travel. Red Barn doors\, 347 Division St. in Leavenworth\, open at 6:30PM for community social and no-host refreshments. Free event\, donations welcome! \nWenatcheeriverinstitute.org / Community Experiences / Red Barn Events\nQuestions? Call or email Rebecca Ryan\, (509)548-0181

Washington State is fortunate to have seven grouse species ranging from greater sage-grouse in the lower elevations to white-tailed ptarmigan at the highest elevations\,” tells Schroeder. \nContinued habitat loss (from development and wildfire)\, fragmentation and degradation challenge the sustainability of grouse populations in the Columbia Basin. Learn about current studies and efforts to help these birds survive and thrive. \nAttendance limited to 30\, please register soon.

SUMMARY:Cascades Wolverine Project
DESCRIPTION:Wenatchee River Institute Red Barn Event\, Cascades Wolverine Project \nLearn about Cascade Wolverine Project’s (CWP) support of wolverine recovery in the North Cascades on Wed.\, Dec. 4th\, 7pm-8:30 pm in Wenatchee River Institute’s Red Barn\, 347 Division St. in Leavenworth. \nMany biologists seek to answer questions about wolverine ecology in the Cascades\, such as this elusive mountain carnivore’s population distribution\, abundance\, and habitat. However\, the intrepid Gulo gulo is notoriously difficult to study due to the remote and rugged terrain it inhabits. Blending science\, alpine recreation\, conservation\, storytelling\, and stewardship\, CWP works to collect highly sought after data by engaging those in the Pacific Northwest who share the mountains with wildlife. \nDuring the event CWP project manager\, field biologist\, and mountain guide Stephanie Williams will share her knowledge about wolverine ecology and conservation\, as well as current research and citizen science among the winter recreation community –particularly backcountry skiers and climbers. Now beginning its third season of winter fieldwork\, CWP is a grassroots effort based in the Methow Valley. \nDoors open at 6:30pm for community social and no-host refreshments\, presentation begins at 7pm.\nThe evening will also include a raffle to benefit CWP\, an 8×10” ready to hang print by photographer\, wildlife tracker\, and field biologist David Moskowitz. The photograph features Stella the wolverine\, who calls Early Winters Creek near Washington Pass her home. \nWenatcheeriverinstitute.org / Community Experiences / Red Barn Events\nEvent questions?

SUMMARY:The Winter's Tale
DESCRIPTION:Location- Liberty Cinemas 11 S Mission St\, Wenatchee\, Washington 98801 \nHosted by Icicle Creek Center for the Arts \nJoin us for the first public premiere of The Winter’s Tale\, December 12\, 7pm\, at Liberty Cinema. Discover the 13\,000 year old tribal legend of Dragon Spexman\, the guardian of the Wenatchee Valley\, nestled under the waters where the Columbia River and Wenatchee River meet. Explore legendary sacred sites through story told by oral historian Randy Lewis\, featuring geological review by Nick ‘On the Rocks’ Zentner. Learn about local history and geology and see our valley in a way you’ve seen it before! \nFollowed by a live Q & A with Randy Lewis and Nick Zentner.\nThe Winter’s Tale is a directed film study program reaching across the Wenatchee Valley and across cultures. This project takes its name from a time-honored practice when\, in the deep of winter\, a tribal elder would gather the young people around and begin to tell a story\, a story about the land\, about the powers of the animals roaming through it and about the relationship of the people to it all. These stories would unfold over not just hours\, but over a period of days\, delivered with a sense of poetry\, a cadence that captivated the young listeners and imprinted on them deeply\, connecting them to the land and to their own heritage in ways that would remain with them their entire lives\, and ultimately would be told again in the deep of winter to the generations not yet born. \nAll proceeds support educational filmmaking opportunities for local filmmaking students to continue this important tribal legends documentary series in 2020. Working with Randy Lewis\, renowned Wenatchee storyteller\, we will capture and preserve these oral traditions while introducing students to the creative and technical processes of filmmaking. Students learn theory and practical application of filmmaking by working in-studio with professionals in the industry and instructors at Wenatchee Valley Technical Skills Center to develop camera\, audio\, lighting and editing techniques. \nVisit https://icicle.org/winters-tale/ for more details.

SUMMARY:Big History-Evolutionary Story of the Earth & Life On It
DESCRIPTION:Where: Community Cultural Center of Tonasket\, 411 S. Western Ave\nWhen: Friday\, January 3\, 2020\n• 5:15 – Dinner by Joyful Thai\, benefitting the CCC\n• 6:30 – Presentation by Dana Visalli\nCost: Presentation is free; dinner is $12 per plate; desserts by donation (benefit for the CCC)\nMenu: Garlic Chicken or Veggie Stir Fry\, Pork Pad Woon Sen or Vegetarian Green Curry\, Steamed Jasmine Rice and Chicken or Veggie Egg Roll. \nBig History ~ the evolutionary story of the Earth and the life on it\, in one hour\, with Dana Visalli \nEvent Description: Dana Visalli will carry out a seemingly impossible task: describing the evolution of life on Earth in ONE HOUR. Dana’s deep understanding and enthusiasm for nature shows in his work as a professional botanist\, naturalist\, writer\, publisher and educator. While he is interested in all aspects of life on our planet\, the topic for this presentation is especially fascinating to Dana\, who shares\, “Big History is the most interesting\, compelling\, and meaningful subject are I have ever encountered.” It was once thought that the Earth was static and unchanging\, but we now know the opposite is true. Both the Earth and the life on it are dynamic and ever-changing. This is the scientific story of evolution; it borders on the spiritual\, and is meaningful to our own lives. \nMore Information:\n• Clock hours are available for educators. Please be sure to sign in the day of the event.\n• Donations are always welcome!\n• Questions? Contact Jen at jen@okanoganhighlands.org or 509-429-4399\n• https://okanoganhighlands.org/education/highland-wonders/

SUMMARY:Mission Ridge Yeti Release & Ribbon Cutting
DESCRIPTION:Mission Ridge Yeti “Release” & Ribbon Cutting Ceremony \nLocation: At the top of the Liberator Express at Mission Ridge Resort \nJoin the creators and artists behind NCW’s newest mythological art installation for a Wenatchee Valley Chamber hosted ribbon cutting on Saturday\, January 4th\, 2020. The towering 11ft metal sculpture\, known affectionately as “The Yeti” will be officially introduced to the public and “released” to the wild at its new semi-permanent home near the top of the Liberator Express at Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort. \nThe life-size sculpture was created by a team of local artists called Project Yeti\, and installed in September 2019. Adorned with reclaimed metal chain\, the installation was designed to gather snow and ice to provide a different caricature upon each viewing. Some days it may be the mythical Bigfoot\, brown and rusty. Other days it will be the Yeti – gnarled and covered with snow and ice. “Mission Ridge provides the perfect ‘yeti sighting’ backdrop for the thousands of visitors to the mountain each year” says Project Manager\, Kasey Koski. “We hope that it becomes a beloved part of the Mission Ridge experience.” \nProject Yeti consists of Kasey Koski\, Project Manager; Zeb Postelwait & Thad Brewer\, Creative Leads and Oly Mingo\, Outreach Coordinator. The list of supporting sponsors includes Wenatchee Valley Museum & Cultural Center\, Okanogan Wenatchee National Forest\, Lemolo Cafe and Deli\, North 40 Productions\, Wenatchee Sand & Gravel\, Wenatchee Valley Scrap & Recycle\, Randy’s Towing\, American Shoe Shop and Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort. The project also raised several hundred dollars in public crowd funding. \nThe ribbon cutting is open to the public\, however a lift ticket is required to access the chair lift. The event will be followed by an informal toast to the Yeti at Midway Lodge. \nFor more information about the yeti installation visit facebook.com/missionridgeyeti or follow the Instagram hashtag #MRyeti

SUMMARY:Adult STEM Night with WRI and NCRL
DESCRIPTION:Adult STEM Night with Wenatchee River Institute and North Central Regional Library \nOn Tue.\, Jan. 7\, 2020\, come out to Wenatchee River Institute’s Red Barn\, 347 Division St. in Leavenworth\, for hands-on experiences with virtual reality\, robotics\, and lasers! \nImmerse yourself and dance your way through a virtual 3D world. Learn how to program North Central Regional Library’s (NCRL) newest Sphero RVR robot\, inspired by students and educators. The NCRL STEM department –science\, technology\, engineering and math– will partner with the WRI to bring fun STEM programs to adults. \nEnjoy yourself while working on motor skills with Beat Saber\, a virtual reality rhythm game. With a pair of light sabers\, slice through flying blocks representing musical beats of adrenalin pumping music while surrounded by a futuristic world. This is an interactive game and a great introduction to the world of virtual reality. \nSphero’s RVR robot works and looks much like a remote control car\, but with a programming interface. This activity is an opportunity to learn about writing code and having a good\, experiential time while doing it. Heather Inczauskis\, NCRL’s STEM Coordinator\, will also bring Arduino microbite controllers\, the small board that makes electronics we use interactive. Inczauskis will help you begin or expand your basic block coding and (legal) hacking skills. \n“Adults don’t usually get to play with robots and have missed out on experiencing this really fun stuff that transports you to a different world. Come out to experiment and play\, it’s really cool! Test out new technology and find out what your kids are doing in school\,” encourages Inczauskis. \nInczauskis will also bring a laser cutter to cut your original design into a piece of wood\, along with something from National Geographic’s interactive virtual reality explorations\, like climbing Mount Everest or choosing your own story about a bear. “Many adults haven’t taken time to draw things in years. People forget how creative they can be!” said Inczauskis about the laser cutter. \nDoors open at 6:30pm. The event is FREE with donations appreciated. No-host beer and wine is available from local vendors. Questions? Email Rachel at rbishop@wenatcheeriverinstitute.org or call (509)548-0181 x5.
