SUMMARY:Stream Steward Training
DESCRIPTION:If you’re inspired to make a difference in the health of our local ecosystems\, the Stream Steward training is for you!\n\n\n\nThe Stream Steward Program provides Kitsap residents with the opportunity to turn environmental knowledge into action. Through an annual\, multi-day\, hybrid training\, participants learn about connections between our lands and waters and the life that depends on their health. The training includes classroom sessions\, field trips\, and hands-on activities\, and connects participants with experts and opportunities to get involved in local efforts. \nUpon completion\, volunteers are required to commit to 20 hours of ecosystem-based volunteer service in the next year and report these hours to WSU Extension. Volunteer hours can be applied to a wide range of opportunities that work toward the larger goal of improving Kitsap ecosystem health. From getting involved in a citizen science project to engaging in public outreach\, volunteers can connect with opportunities that fit their skills and interests. \nThroughout the training\, organizations will provide participants with information about local projects and offer exciting opportunities to plug in and make a difference in Kitsap County. \nSample topics for the 2026 training include: \n\nStream and forest ecology\nRestoration and wildlife\nDrinking water and water quality in Kitsap\nOpportunities to volunteer with local organizations\n\nCost: \n\nEarly bird registration (through Jan. 18\, 2026): $50\nGeneral registration (starts Jan. 19\, 2026): $60\n\nRegistrations will not be refunded after Monday\, February 23\, 2025. \nScholarships are available—contact Anna McClelland directly at anna.mcclelland@wsu.edu for an application. \nLocations: All classes will be in person sessions\, locations will be all across Kitsap County.
