Other Ways You Can Get Involved

Since 1998, the Cottonwood Creek Watershed Group has been the leading voice of the community in the fight to safeguard the scenic beauty, wildlife, and historic and cultural treasures of the largest and most diverse undammed tributary in the norhtern Central Valley.  CCWG and its many supporters are committed to preserving the environment, private property and water rights and economic resources for generations to come.

The Cottonwood Creek Watershed Group has a lot of work to do.  We can make a tremendous difference in assuring the future of our beloved watershed if we work together. 

Some of the specific needs that we have at this time are as follows:

Office Help:  We need filing, data entry, correspondence, etc.

Help with the Newsletter:  We welcome guest writers and help with distribution.  If you have a story or an idea please let us know.

Field Work:  We welcome people who would like to help with our field trips and conservation/restoration projects.  Whether you are an expert on watershed restoration work, or you just want to get involved and work with kids, we would love to have you.

Use of Land:  CCWG is constantly looking for landowners in the watershed who will allow us to take field trips to their property.  This really expands our ability to get kids and adults involved, and we may even reward you by doing some restoration work.
