The Bear River Watershed Council will launch a new program this season called Friends of the Canyon. It will be comprised of citizens concerned about the welfare of our local canyons. All members of the community are invited to make a difference by simply keeping their eyes and ears open to questionable activities that could impact wildlife habitat, public lands, and our community's open space. BRWC will create a small group for each local canyon and enlist a designated contact person that will coordinate communication and disperse information between the Logan Ranger District, volunteers, and others. BRWC has recently formed Friends of High Creek Canyon. If you have questions about Friends of High Creek please contact Grant Stewart or Leslie Erickson at highcreekvolunteers(at)gmail.com For more information about our Friends program or if you would like to help organize a local group, please contact Meg Hawks at meghawks(at)gmail.com.
