River Cleanup

Thursday, October 15th, 4PM-6PM

Make a difference at the river clean up event! Let's get together to clean up the shores of the Wenatchee River along the Waterfront Park Trail. Soon enough the river will be rising and we don't want all that trash heading down with the water!

We will be socially distanced, masked when close, and garbage bags will be provided.

There are Fungus Amongus

Two weeks ago our area was lucky to get a good dose of rain. As a result, there are many mushrooms appearing around campus. Here we have a few boletes. Fungi show themselves to us as mushrooms, or the fruiting body. This is only a small fraction of the fungus organism. The underground hyphae can expand over many acres of land!
