Join us for Talking Water Movie Night!

This June 26th, the Illinois Valley Watershed Council invites you to a free community movie night at the IV Library — and this one is special.

We'll be screening "First Descent: Kayaking the Klamath" — a compelling film following Indigenous youth on a historic 310-mile journey down a newly free-flowing Klamath River, made possible by the largest dam removal project in American history. It's a story of resilience, river, and reclamation that feels deeply connected to everything we care about here in the Illinois Valley.

Before the film, we'll share a short photo presentation of a successful stream restoration project completed on Horse Creek in the IV during summer 2025.

WHEN: Friday, June 26 • 7:00 – 8:30pm
WHERE: Illinois Valley Branch of Josephine Community Library
209 West Palmer St., Cave Junction

Snacks provided — just bring yourself!

Come for the film, stay for the conversation. We hope to see you there.

We're rebuilding — and we need you!

We're looking for neighbors ready to join our volunteer Board of Directors and help lead: people who care about this place and want their voice to truly matter. A heart for the Valley is the key — and if you bring skills in fundraising, nonprofit management, marketing, community engagement, grant writing, or environmental work, even better.

Healthy watersheds sustain everything we love about living here. Help us restore it.

This is your moment. Reach out today — contact Kevin at 541-592-3731 or [email protected]
