Scott Freeman, author of “Saving Tarboo Creek” and distinguished University of Washington professor, will give a talk on his recent book, “Saving Tarboo Creek.”
According to Scott, “My talk will focus on our effort to continue Aldo Leopold’s legacy in ecological restoration, now 80 years and three generations in the family later. Over the past 15 years, small and encouraging triumphs in reforestation and remeandering set Tarboo Creek on the path to becoming a high-functioning salmon stream again, after decades of degradation. But now we are encountering challenges and potential setbacks: a reed canary infestation, the impact of the hot-water “Blob” on salmon returning to Puget Sound, and a proposal from a private security company to build a paramilitary training center near the creek’s headwaters. Responding to these issues is a reminder that community-based conservation is a lifelong process–one that ties us to each other and to the land.”
To continue the conversation, prior to and after Scott’s talk, representatives from local conservation agencies and organizations will be on hand to provide information on ways local landowners and the community can get involved with salmon restoration projects and activities.
Free light refreshments will be available.

“Support our troops” is a common phrase, seen on lawn signs and bumper stickers across America. Veterans are welcomed home by enthusiastic crowds, and thousands of service organizations help veterans find jobs, secure housing, and heal from the experience of war.
But it wasn’t always this way. Veterans returning from Vietnam were often greeted by mobs accusing them of being “baby killers.” Veterans from Korea felt their war was forgotten and unknown. And veterans from World War I, destitute during the Great Depression, were treated like criminals by their government.
Why and how has America’s treatment of its veterans changed over time? How have the country’s citizens responded to the call of duty from one war to the next? This presentation examines America’s relationship to wars and veterans over the last century, and what shapes our current national consciousness towards veterans and the wars they fight in our name.

There are more than the five senses we learned about in school. Some children’s behaviors maybe sensory processing challenges rather than intentional meanness or bad behavior. Learn about all our senses and how they are processed in our brain. Share sensory strategies and ways to help your child when their sensory system is not functioning smoothly.
