Tualatin Riverkeepers was founded by a group of passionate watershed residents, and community volunteers remain at the heart of our work. Many individuals volunteer with us as paddle trip leaders, restoration volunteers or leaders, or by serving as an ambassador, but committees remain an excellent way to lend your skills and knowledge to advancing our mission.
While every committee is important, the Watershed Watch Committee is integral to our efforts to protect the watershed. Committee members meet on a bi-monthly basis, advising the Advocacy and Policy Manager on advocacy-related issues impacting the watershed. If you have experience or interest in land use planning, natural resource protection, or the Clean Water Act, this is a great opportunity to lend your skills.
Our 2025 Watershed Watch Committee meetings will be held on the 3rd Wednesday of every other month - February 19, April 16, June 18, August 20, October 15, and December 17 - at 6:00 p.m. via Zoom.

The Trips and Tours Committee works with our River Experiences Manager to plan all aspects of our paddle trips. The committee assists with the annual Tualatin River Discovery Day (scheduled for June 22 in 2025), advising on new launches, and leading groups on tours of the river. The committee will also be instrumental in advising on TRK's River Runners program. Contact River Experience Manager Mark Fitzsimons - mark@tualatinriverkeepers.org - for more information.
Our Finance Committee works to ensure TRK’s financial sustainability and oversee budgeting and fundraising efforts. Committee work includes reviewing TRK's annual budget, fundraising plan, and Financial Review, advising the Executive Director on best practices in financial management. Meetings will be held on April 21 (Review 2024 Financial Statement), July 14 (Review 1st half 2025 finances), and December 15 (2026 Budget).
