IRS990/Desc0Watershed Education--because of the Covid-19 pandemic, most of our educational programs had to be revamped to reach people digitally. AV and recording equipment was purchased to turn our experiental, in-person lessons into video opportunities. We launched a YouTube video series and a monthly column in the local newspaper. We reached more than 400 youth and 200 adults with virtual educational opportunities. Programs included: "Earth Stewardship Program" a partnership with 4 local schools that engage hundreds of 7th graders throughout the school year; the "Did You Know?" video series on YouTube and the "Watershed Wellness" column in the Ravalli Republic; the "Bitterroot River Clean-up" drive through event and "Clean-up All Year", a reusable trash bag program to encourage river stewardship every day; and targeted presentations to community groups and local citizens.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Watershed restoration project implementation, design and monitoring--implemented Phase One on the Burnt Fork at the Meyer Ranch,a project to improve water quality and support the fishery. The project helped bolster the riparian area by adding native shrubs and willows to the streambank, providing shade and habitat and installing fence that will keep cattle out of the stream while protecting plants. Monitoring and maintenance will continue for three years, with a Second Phase of plantings and stream crossing reinforcement in 2021. Worked with Geum Environmental Consulting and the Hamilton Parks Director and City Council to develop a final restoration design for preserving the Skalkaho Bend Park through plantings designed to reduce erosion, with implementation planned for 2021. Monitoring was also conducted with the Watershed Enhancement Team on multiple project sites along the East Fork, Miller Creek and Rye Creek.
