ORCA RECOVERY DAY Adopt-a-Road cleanup on Barber Cutoff, Kingston Saturday October 15 10am-12pm |
|
In honor of Orca Recovery Day, Stillwaters will be out and clearly visible picking up litter along Barber Cutoff Road on Saturday, October 15th at 10AM.
Orca Recovery Day began as a reaction to Southern Resident Killer Whale Tahlequah’s display of grief as she tragically swam her dead calf around the Sound for 17 days. Puget Sound conservation districts and a handful of partners hosted restoration events that would help make a better habitat for orcas and their main food source, Chinook salmon.
Since then, Orca Recovery Day has grown to over 160 groups and 6,000 participants. This day has drawn volunteers to plant over 27,700 trees and shrubs and remove over 59,000 pounds of litter from reaching or re-entering the Salish Sea for sustained collective partner stewardship.
If you'd like to help keep lower Carpenter Creek clean while enjoying the company of Stillwaters' staff & volunteers, please join us! Email Program Director Melissa Fleming (melissa@stillwatersenvironmentalcenter.org) to let us know you are coming, dress accordingly (safety gear provided), and bring water to drink!
