Join us for a day of learning, connection, and exploration at the Tualatin Watershed Science Symposium: Headwaters to Confluence.
This event will bring together researchers, restoration practitioners, community scientists, and watershed partners to share the many projects happening throughout the Tualatin River watershed.
Morning presentations will focus on wildlife monitoring and community science projects, showcasing how volunteers and researchers are helping track species and understand ecosystem health.
Midday, participants will step outside for a guided nature walk through PCC Rock Creek’s campus wetlands and forests, offering a chance to see local habitat work firsthand.
After lunch, the afternoon session will shift to restoration science, with presentations on habitat restoration efforts and the research informing on-the-ground work across the basin.
Whether you are a community scientist, student, land manager, volunteer, or simply interested in the Tualatin River, this symposium offers a chance to learn about the diverse work happening from the headwaters to the confluence.
What to Bring
The nature walk will take place outdoors through the campus restoration area. Waterproof boots or sturdy walking shoes are strongly recommended. Spring in Oregon often means rain and muddy trails, so come prepared for wet conditions and dress for the weather.
