#Giving Tuesday, November 30th, 2021.
Whether you donate to a civic organization, youth group or environmental group, there is no greater need for donations than now. The pandemic is not over and the events that we typically would plan are still not feasible or safe in large numbers. Please donate what you can. If you can give monthly, that is an awesome plan because it helps us with our overhead (which is minimal).
With Watershed Guardians, we walk the walk. In fact, over the past 9 years, Watershed Guardians have censused beaver activity on over 450 miles of streams in the watershed. Our cadre of informed trainers have demonstrated how to handle the cold winter environments and give volunteers confidence to explore our watershed.
So, help us continue to help them (beaver), help us. There is nothing more fun (in my opinion) than walking across a beaver dam. It may not be what you'd expect, but we walk the walk.

Give-A-Dam: A film event to help Watershed Guardians
Scott D. Worth (1958-2021)
Each year, we dedicate our event to those who have made an impact on our organization . Scott Worth was a friend that worked behind the scenes. Whether it was donating cash or serving beer at the BeaverDamJam-Idaho or helping count colonies as he was in this picture taken on Jackson Creek, he was always encouraging and never asking. He was my ski buddy and it is even more fitting that we acknowledge him here at the base of Pebble Creek Ski area. Thank you, buddy. -Mike Settell
