Volunteer with the Kellogg Creek Student Macroinvertebrate Monitoring Program this fall! Help students 6th-12th grade collect and identify creek critters, as part of our long-term water quality monitoring program for the Kellogg Creek Restoration and Community Enhancement Project!

Our volunteers have played a critical role in helping to inspire and provide hands-on, outdoor, scientific learning opportunities for local students.

No previous experience necessary - an in-person volunteer training will be held on September 26th from 9:30 am - 12pm. Learn more and register on our website:

Join us on Thursday, August 20th from 5:45 – 6:45 p.m., for a walking tour of the Kellogg Creek Restoration and Community Enhancement Project site! Learn more about this exciting project, its benefits for our community and urban wildlife, and the project timeline. We will meet at Milwaukie Bay Park, where we can see Kellogg Dam, to talk about its history and ecological impact. The tour will continue along the Trolley Trail, where we can get a good view of the Kellogg Impoundment, and discuss how that area will change once it has been restored. In total, participants can expect to travel less than a 1/2 mile, on paved sidewalks. Register on our website: https://ncwatersheds.org/get-involved-with-the-council/volunteer/

Acompañanos el 20 de Augusto de 5:45 pm a 6:45 pm para un recorrido guiado por el sitio del Proyecto de Restauración y Mejora Comunitaria de Kellogg Creek. Nos reuniremos en el parque Milwaukie Bay, donde podremos ver la Presa Kellogg, hablar sobre su historia y los muchos beneficios para la vida silvestre y las personas que esperamos ver una vez que sea retirada. Continuaremos por el Sendero Trolley, donde tendremos una buena vista del actual embalse de Kellogg, y discutiremos cómo cambiará esa área una vez que haya sido restaurada.Regístrate en nuestro sitio web o envía un correo electrónico a Peyton a [email protected].

Look who's hanging out along Lower Kellogg Creek this summer!

🦉🐇🐺

Our Watershed Ambassador volunteer, Nina, has been monitoring a trail camera in natural areas around Lower Kellogg Creek to document wildlife is present in the area. We can support urban wildlife in our watersheds by planting native plants, providing access to clean water and minimizing hazards!

Another year, another DUCK RACE! 🦆🌞

We had so much fun at this years race - congrats to our winning ducks and thank you to all of the volunteers who came out to help wrangle the rest of them!

We love this event and our partners at Milwaukie Parks Foundation who help to put it on every year! Still, we can't help but look forward to the day when Kellogg Dam is removed and our rubber duckies work is done!
