TUALATIN RIVERKEEPERS
The Tualatin River was once a regional vacation destination. After years of abuse it became the most polluted river in Oregon.
While much has been accomplished, threats from activities that occur across the landscape: polluted water runoff from urban roads and parking lots, lawns chemicals, farms and clear cuts all continue to impact our water quality.
Tualatin Riverkeepers is the leading independent voice standing up for the river, streams and wetlands in our community. This effort must be maintained to protect our water, fish and wildlife. You can make a difference by becoming a member. Your secure online membership donation through Network for Good help Tualatin Riverkeepers get to right work where action is most needed.

Tualatin Riverkeepers has shown over the past 20 years that the more people that experience our river, the more people care about its protection.
Our challenge is to complete the Tualatin River Water Trail by developing a public launch point every five miles so all residents have access to hidden areas. Development of public launch sites is needed at:
· Farmington Bridge, West of Beaverton
· Metro's Natural Area on Munger Lane in Scholls
· Schamburg Bridge, off Roy Rogers Rd.
· Stafford Natural Area on Borland Rd. in Clackamas
Your support is needed today to launch this campaign. The Riverkeepers needs $20,000 to finalize its campaign strategy, to mobilize public and landowner support, and to leverage private and public funding for the access points.
At the Green Heron Gala we raised over $8500 to support this effort. You can help us achieve our goal of $20,000 with your contribution online at Network for Good.
