A week and a half ago we hosted our third annual Bear Aware Community event in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service - Salmon-Challis National Forest, Bureau of Land Management - Idaho, Idaho Fish and Game (IDFG), and Backcountry Hunters & Anglers. IDFG staff from Island Park drove up to Salmon with their awesome bear education trailer, including a bear on tracks for folks to practice using bear spray! Hannah with the Salmon Field Office BLM shared information about whitebark pine & bear habitat, while Clay drove up from Challis & had resources for hunters and anglers to be bear aware while out recreating. The Forest Service had some Smokey swag and coloring books, while we had a variety of handouts for people to learn how to take preventative measures to reduce human-bear conflicts, free stickers, and a bear paw craft! A huge thank you to all of our partners for joining us for this event. Save the date for Wildlife Trivia on July 15th! Location TBD. 🐻

SVS, in partnership with the Salmon Field Office Bureau of Land Management - Idaho has been working on a trails accessibility study at Discovery Hill. With funding support from National Environmental Education Foundation - NEEF this project involves gathering data about the Disco trails (grade, tread width, dishing, obstacles, etc) to develop signage in the future that would identify trail characteristics to aid in accessibility for all. We recruited 8th graders from FernWaters and high school students from Salmon High School to help us gather this data, using smart levels, tape measures, clinometers, tablets, and 100 ft ropes. Before going out in the field, students learned about accessibility needs when it comes to recreation, adaptive equipment, and practiced using the tools for field work. A huge thank you to all of our helpers, including teachers, staff from the BLM, Emma with the Salmon-Challis, and volunteer Bill Avey.

Our last Friday Natural Resource Program of the year was PECK-tacular. We got to learn about and observe many different feathery friends! Our good friend Tempe, the Idaho Department of Fish and Game regional wildlife biologist, shared her extensive knowledge of birds of prey with us. She even brought in feathers and birds for us to observe. Then we learned how to use binoculars and went birding, spotting over ten different species, including a juvenile bald eagle that swooped over our heads! At the park, we dissected owl pellets and went on a bird habitat scavenger hunt!

Thanks to all the amazing learners, parents, and natural resource professionals who participated in and supported this program! If you enjoyed it, spread the word and look out for our Wednesday summer day camps at the Salmon School Garden starting in July!

Two weeks ago, Salmon Valley Stewardship and the Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural & Educational Center hosted the 2nd annual “Expedition in a Day” field trip program with Pioneer Elementary. We welcomed Kindergarten through 5th grade classes to the Center each day to participate in a variety of stations on topics related to the Lewis and Clark Expedition, Agaidika culture, archaeology, and wildlife of the region. Depending on the grade level, students investigated animal tracks and scat around the Interpretive Center, explored a replica medicine chest modeled after the one Lewis and Clark carried on their journey, examined intricate Shoshone beadwork, climbed into a dugout canoe, or observed pileated woodpeckers on a nature walk. On Friday, we partnered with Lemhi Afterschool Promise for a special Friday program at the Center and then a community presentation with Leo Arriwite, Northern Shoshoni, from the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes. This year’s Expedition in a Day was supported by the Pioneer Elementary PTO who covered bus transportation costs, park rangers with the National Park Service’s Big Hole National Battlefield, Miss Erin with the Salmon Public Library, Sarah and Sarah with the Bureau of Land Management Salmon Field Office, Emma and Becca with the U.S. Forest Service - Salmon-Challis National Forest Partnership Office, Bobette and Russell Haskett of the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, Leo Arriwite and family, and the Lewis & Clark Trails Alliance and their educators Laurie and Tom. Thank you to our incredible partners for helping us pull off another successful field trip program!

Salmon Valley Stewardship's Food Systems program is supported by the Transition to Organic Partnership Program (TOPP). This program funds our Organic food producer education and workshops here in the Salmon River region. The TOPP program published their impact report and it's super impressive! Read the report here:

https://www.organictransition.org/impact-report/

Did you know? The U.S. spends $8.9 billion annually on imported organic food, while American farmers are ready to meet that demand. TOPP is bridging this gap by supporting 3,800+ operations to achieve organic certification. In our community, Salmon Valley Stewardship's TOPP program is helping to build our producer's knowledge and confidence to have a more self-reliant food supply.

Last month's Friday Program was all about WILDFIRE. Prevention Pat from the Forest Service shared his knowledge and expertise on everything from the inner workings of trees and forests to the complexities of fire safety, prevention, and decision-making! Outside, we used our imaginations to become phloem, xylum, heartwood, and bark during different forest conditions! In the sandbox, we acted out a wildfire scenario and had to make hard decisions! We all enjoyed experiencing Pat's Fire Rig and spraying the fire hose!

One week from today is our LAST Friday program of the school year! Join us as we learn all about BIRDS from several different bird experts and enthusiasts. Friday May 9th from 9am - 12pm at the SVS Gathering Space (115 S Center St). Email kateyeater@salmonvalley.org to sign up your learner today! These programs are FREE (donations welcome) and geared toward 2nd-6th graders with snacks and supplies provided!

The Idaho State Envirothon, held in Challis, was a blast! This was the first time in over a decade Salmon has been represented at this unique natural resource competition, thanks to five super smart students who love to be outside!

The teams rotated through four field stations: soils and land use, forestry, aquatics, and wildlife. Natural Resource professionals at each station taught about their respective subject and then tested the students on their knowledge. Later in the evening they were given a current events presentation and a mock scenario/problem to solve. This year's theme was all about Forest Stewardship and making our forests more resilient for all who use and enjoy them. The students then had to organize their ideas and knowledge and present their solution scenario to a panel of judges. Scores from the field tests and presentations are then compiled and the winning team goes on to the international competition held this year in Alberta, Canada.

The Salmon Team won Rookie of the Year award, having learned a ton and coming away with a much better understanding of the competition. The Juniors on the team are excited to lead the way (to victory?) next year! Most importantly, we learned many new card games, laughed continuously for two days straight, and connected with each other and the land.

A huge thank you to the Lemhi Soil and Water Conservation District for the sponsorship and support, to the best high school science teacher of all time, Mrs. Nelson, and to all the natural resource professionals who organized and carried out this event despite all the challenges they are facing this year.
