SUMMARY:Calling Women In-Snow Science
DESCRIPTION:This is an online event. \nHosted by Community Snow Observations and SheJumps \nDid you know less than 10% of snow scientists identify as women? We’re invested in seeing that shift to include more women in snow science. Join us for a virtual panel packed with women who’ve made their careers in snow science. Listen to their stories about how they got into and why they’ve stuck with it. Topics will include finding the career\, the education process\, challenges along the way\, support and how they see the career changing in the future. \nIn addition\, snow scientists Katreen Wikstrom Jones and Christina Aragon will explain the Community Snow Observations project which is part of the NASA Citizen Science for Earth Systems project. You’ll learn how you can be a citizen scientist and help CSO predict snow conditions and improve snow safety in the mountains. We’ll wrap it all up with a Q & A session hosted by Dr. Sara Boilen. \nAs an added bonus to those who participate\, we are giving away some sweet Arc’teryx gear! The participant must register & attend the event in order to qualify. Winners will be announced the following day by SheJumps on their Instagram. \n** This event is donation based yet you must register via Eventbrite** \nFor more information click here.

SUMMARY:Becoming a Conscious Consumer
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by NCW Libraries & Sustainable Wenatchee\n\nDid you know that the things we buy can impact our personal health as well as the environment\, society\, and the economy?\nJoin us for Becoming a Conscious Consumer: The high cost of cheap stuff and how to be a better buyer to learn more.\n\nSustainable Wenatchee Executive Director\, Jana Fischback will help us identify ways to make more responsible purchases. Jana will cover the ethical problem of all the cheap stuff that we buy\, including global environmental and societal implications. Now\, that can get a little depressing\, so then we’ll talk about solutions!\n\nFirst\, Jana will share ideas for how to buy less. And then\, she will teach us how to buy smarter in four main categories: clothes\, groceries\, everyday household goods\, and electronics. She will also briefly touch on the issues of personal health\, greenwashing\, and advocating for manufacturers to take responsibility for the environmental cost of their products.\n\nSustainable Wenatchee is a nonprofit that promotes a culture of environmental stewardship and social sustainability in the Wenatchee valley. Jana is a Wenatchee native and earned her Master’s in Environmental Studies from Evergreen State College. She worked as a Sustainability Coordinator on the west side before returning to the valley in 2016. She co-founded Sustainable Wenatchee a year later.

SUMMARY:P'squosa People & Their Fishing Rights
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Wenatchee River Institute\n\nJoin Tribal Historian\, Richard Hart\, for your lunch break!\nA leader of the Psquosa signed the 1855 Walla Walla Treaty\, which guaranteed them a 6 by 6 mile reservation where Icicle Creek meets the Wenatchee River. The United States never surveyed the reservation and refused for over a century to recognize the tribe’s fishing rights. In a federal trial in May of 2008 the Psquosa argued they had fishing rights and eventually the court (and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals) ruled in favor of the tribe\, so under the law\, the matter is now settled. After more than 150 years the Wenatchis finally have their fishing rights.\nHow to watch:\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://zoom.us/j/99614692875…\nPasscode: 969509

SUMMARY:Voices of Transition
DESCRIPTION:Environmental Film & Speaker Series: Voices of Transition\nHosted by Wenatchee Valley Museum & Cultural Center and sponsored by Sustainable Wenatchee\n\nJoin us in viewing the documentary Voices of Transition\, and participate in a follow-up Zoom Q&A Sessions with a local panel on Tuesday\, February 2 at 7 PM.\nPowered by the conviction that crisis can be a major catalyst for change\, Voices of Transition present paths towards a new model of human existence: one which is fair\, environmentally sound and fulfilling\, with soil and people supporting each other in a balanced and sustainable system. In England\, France and Cuba\, we meet committed communities who are successfully establishing local\, autonomous\, ecological food systems and\, in so doing\, are taking back control of their food supplies from multinational corporations.\nThe stories told by these diverse Voices of Transition carry an emboldening message: by working more closely with nature\, we can create incredible opportunities. And if we work together not only with nature\, but with other people\, we can change the world.\n\nRegistration is by donation. After registering you will receive an email with a link to preview the film at your leisure and join us virtually for a Q&A Session with a local panel on Tuesday\, February 2 from 7 – 8:30 PM.\n\nFor more information click here.

SUMMARY:Intro Series to Wildlife Tracking
DESCRIPTION:Introductory Series to Wildlife Tracking \nHosted by Wenatchee River Institute \nEvery time we step outside of our door\, there are myriad stories to be told of the comings and goings of animals in the world\, and one of the oldest human capacities is to read and interpret these stories. The art and science of tracking offers a holistic ecological window into the happenings of the living world around us. \nIn this 3-part series\, you will gain a foundational introduction to the vast world of wildlife tracking. We will explore:\n• The art of inquiry and engaging curiosity in the natural world\n• Basic wildlife foot physiology and morphology\n• Clear print identification\n• Concepts in behavior and wildlife sign interpretation\n• How wildlife interacts with landscapes \nLimit of 30 participants. You can sign up for individual classes or the whole series.\nCost: $15 per class\, $32 (members) whole series\, $40 (non-members) whole series\nREGISTER FOR INDIVIDUAL CLASSES UNDER THE CALENDAR EVENT FOR THAT SPECIFIC DATE. \nEach of the session will be online and last for 75-90 minutes. We will cover three core concepts of wildlife tracking: \nFebruary 16th – The Tracking Mindset\nThis session will introduce basic concepts of wildlife tracking\, the different specific practices within the greater tracking skillset\, and how to get into the mind of a tracker. We will discuss some key questions a tracker should always be asking and provide a couple of frameworks that help you think about the landscapes we are exploring in a new way. \nMarch 16th – Foot Morphology and Track Identification\nThis session will dive into the world of animal foot morphology and how physiological structures tell us deeper evolutionary stories about how animals are related to each other\, and how they relate to their landscapes. Studying these concepts ultimately gives us the tools to walk up on a set of tracks and begin the process of figuring out who left them. \nApril 20th – Sign Tracking and Ecology\nIn this final session\, we will look at all the ways that animals leave “tracks” on the landscape that are not just from their feet. Sign tracking involves taking a larger ecological perspective into all of the ways animals go about their daily lives in the world. This practice brings us into the fuller story of the ways that animals use the landscape\, and that the landscape has shaped them. \nEnvironmental educators\, naturalists\, outdoor leaders\, or simply amateur naturalists are who have been interested in reading the stories left behind on the landscape are sure to find this 3-part series fun and engaging. \nInstructor Bio:\nMarcus is a naturalist\, educator\, facilitator\, and photographer. He has worked in wilderness education\, outdoor leadership\, and conservation for numerous organizations and communities across North America and Europe. He is engaged in telling stories that bring to light and life\, the complexity of humans living in the 21st century. Marcus currently lives in the Snoqualmie Valley in Washington State\, just east of Seattle. He is the Lead Instructor for an internationally renowned environmental leadership immersion program for adults at the Wilderness Awareness School in Duvall\, WA\, and is also an evaluator with Cybertracker Conservation\, an organization dedicated to providing leading edge assessment and certification in the art and science of wildlife tracking across the globe. \n\n\n\n\n\nCONTACT INFO\n Rachel Bishop\n rbishop@wenatcheeriverinstitute.org\n 509-548-0181 ext 5

From the source\, a tiny spring in the Canadian Rockies\, to the sea\, readers are guided on a journey back to the origins of the 1243 mile river and learn about the complicated history and impact of the Columbia River Treaty .The twelve contributing authors\, a mix of first nations\, tribes\, and salmon recovery advocates\, speak of their relationship to the Columbia and advocate for a new treaty that honors Indigenous knowledge and starts the process to restore one of the greatest salmon runs the world has ever seen. \nThe 2019 release of “Healing the Big River – Salmon Dreams and the Columbia River Treaty”\, is timed to coincide with the re-negotiations of the Columbia River Treaty between the U.S and Canada\, currently underway. \nThis book is for sale at A Book For All Seasons in Leavenworth! \nSpeaker Bio:\nPeter Marbach‘s evocative landscapes reflect time spent working with light at the edges of day . He has produced six photo essay book projects and has had a diverse list of clients\, from National Geographic to Travel Oregon. His work is part of a permanent collection at Oregon State University.\nIn 2011\, Peter collaborated with writer Janet Cook to create a commemorative photo essay on the 25th Anniversary of the creation of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area. In advance comments for the book\, President Jimmy Carter said\, “Peter Marbach’s exquisite imagery and Janet Cook’s eloquent text reminds us of the simple joys of connecting with the land and the importance of preserving precious sites for generations to come.”\nPeter ‘s efforts to rescue the former White House solar panels from the dustbins of history were featured in two documentaries: The PBS show called Beyond the Light Switch and an international film fest winner entitled A Road Not Taken.\nIn 2013 Peter served as a volunteer photographer for a documentary film in Nepal about an inspiring Nepali trekking guide and humanitarian\, Jagat Lama. In April 2015\, Peter was involved in fundraising efforts to help Jagat’s village rebuild after the devastating earthquake and worked with local rotary to provide scholarship funds for a woman from Jagat’s village. \nZoom Webinar Login: \nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://zoom.us/j/92625851846?pwd=emdYT1oyblh6OUtCR2w2M1VBUVUrZz09\nPasscode: 681823\nOr iPhone one-tap :\nUS: +12532158782\nOr Telephone:\nDial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\nUS: +1 253 215 8782\nWebinar ID: 926 2585 1846\nPasscode: 681823 \n\n\n\n\n\nCONTACT INFO\n Rachel Bishop\n rbishop@wenatcheeriverinstitute.org\n 509-548-0181 ext 5
