The Northshore YMCA begins summer service in North Creek Forest June 26. The forest will be the location for eight Summer Camp Service Days. We anticipate 36 kids age 13 to 17. Summer stewardship will be significant this year!
  No English Holly can stand up to these guys!

Our Last Service and Learning
day (for this school year) with Soundview:

The end of Spring Quarter means the last of six forest visits by Soundview International Baccalaureate School 5th and 7th graders.


It was a perfect day for observing the details in the forest.

We got a lot of work done on the restoration site this year.

Everyone also got a chance to look at things we usually miss.







Thank you Soundview! It was a great year.

It was great to see so many families working with their kids and using the time to to teach new things.

Many kids were Jiu-Jitsu and Karate students.




We didn't see anyone flying through the air so we couldn't tell the masters from the beginners.
