SUMMARY:Invasive Weed Removal at Dungeness River Center
DESCRIPTION:Calling all Deadhead-ers! Help us manage invasive Butterfly Bush on the Dungeness River this summer. Seed banks of this invasive shrub can be managed by the removal of flowers prior to seeding\, mitigating the spread of the plant prior to removal.   \nTools and gloves will be provided. Please wear long pants and bring water and a lunch. Footing at the site is uneven. We will be working on rocky gravel bars. Activity ranges from mild to moderate and can be adapted to ability level.  \nAbout the project:  \nWith the Dungeness Riparian Recovery Project\, NOSC is working with willing landowners on the Dungeness River and its tributaries to remove invasive plants like butterfly bush and knotweed in the riparian corridor before planting or seeding the areas with native plants that support pollinators and salmon. Although pretty\, these plants quickly take over gravel bars and stream banks\, excluding the growth of native plants. In order to prevent reseeding from plants upstream\, butterfly bush removal is tackled from upstream to downstream to eliminate seeds from being transported by the water flow. So far\, NOSC has removed butterfly bush from nearly 3 miles of the Dungeness and associated side channels. Downstream seeds banks can be mitigated through deadheading plants that are too large to pull – cutting off the flowers before they go the seed. Each flower cluster can produce up to 40\,000 seeds!  \n  \n  \nFill out my LGL Form!

SUMMARY:Member Tour: Morse Creek
DESCRIPTION:Join NOSC for a Member Tour!\nMember tours give Salmon Coalition Members the opportunity to see the impact of the work they support with tours of complete\, in-progress\, or upcoming projects with staff members. Find out more\, join\, or re-join today by visiting Become a Member | North Olympic Salmon Coalition (nosc.org). \nIn 2010\, the Salmon Coalition completed a large-scale stream restoration project at Morse Creek. The project included re-meandering the stream\, constructing side channels\, installing engineered logjams\, and planting a diverse riparian forest. Now\, 15 years after the project was completed\, return to the site with Project Manager Kevin Long to revisit to restoration work\, see how the creek and forest have reacted to restoration over time\, and hopefully see some spawning pink salmon! \nWhat to expect: the tour site has a lot of uneven ground\, cobbles\, and vegetation. This site is not suitable for those with mobility concerns. While we will not be traveling very far\, there is no maintained trail. Participants should plan to walk over uneven terrain\, step over fallen logs\, and be comfortable walking off-trail in a forest. \nAbout the project: The Morse Creek Riverine Restoration Project re-activated 1700 feet of main channel\, 700 feet of side channel and 9.3 acres of floodplain as it existed around 1930\, prior to the installation of a dike which pushed the river against the valley wall. Restoration includes realigning the channel\, the construction of 19 engineered log jams and the addition of side channels that will provide wintering habitat for salmonids. Improvements will benefit ESA-listed steelhead\, bull trout\, pink salmon\, coho salmon\, and chum salmon. \nDriving directions are provided in registration confirmation. \n**Space is limited – RSVP is required** \nSalmon Coalition Members receive priority registration through August 3rd. Registration for Non-Members opens August 4th. \n \nCan I still come if I’m not a Salmon Coalition Member?\nYes! We always welcome volunteers to share in member tours as thanks for contributing your time and energy to the Salmon Coalition. After priority registration\, we welcome anyone to join if there is still space available! \nSharing our mission and involving the community in salmon restoration work is a vital part of what we do.

SUMMARY:Salmon Spotting at DRNC (August 29)
DESCRIPTION:Join NOSC for Salmon Spotting!\nJoin us at the Dungeness River Nature Center Friday\, August 29 for a morning of discovery as we look for signs of returning salmon in the Dungeness River. This is a relaxed\, drop-in style event—stop by anytime between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM to learn how to spot salmon\, identify key behaviors\, learn about salmon habitat\, and understand what makes this river such an important spawning ground. \nWhether you’re a longtime salmon enthusiast or just curious about what lives in your local river\, this is a great opportunity to deepen your connection to the wild salmon of the North Olympic Peninsula. \nBring binoculars if you have them. We’ll have beverages and snacks available while you’re spotting salmon. \nWhat to expect: August marks the beginning of the return for several salmon species in our region. Depending on timing and conditions\, you may see pink salmon beginning their run\, or even catch a glimpse of summer chum or early coho returning from the Pacific. Learn from Lindsay (Education & Outreach Coordinator) and Nate (Stewardship Coordinator) about the challenges these fish face\, their extraordinary life cycle\, and what we can all do to help ensure their future. \nSharing our mission and involving the community in salmon restoration work is a vital part of what we do.
