Pelicans at Pelican Point, Carmel River State Beach
It's hard to imagine a world without rivers. The continents would be higher, colder and more rugged, and we humans might still be hugging our coastlines. Our iconic cities, situated along rivers, would not have been built. Global trade and travel might never have developed. Even so, rivers' crucial role in shaping civilization is 'grandly under appreciated." |

Watershed Education CurriculumWe are developing a new watershed education curriculum which teaches about the connection between rivers and oceans. In particular, we will track the life of steelhead running from the Carmel River into the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary. Hundreds of school children from Monterey County benefit from our full watershed education program each year through 2-3 hands-on and classroom outings.
