Join Rogue Riverkeeper in giving back to Bear Creek. This is a fun and laid back morning of community service that is absolutely critical to the health of Bear Creek—a salmon bearing waterway that serves as the most populated tributary of the Rogue River.
This spring, Rogue Riverkeeper will be the mouth of Bear Creek on private land at the confluence with the Rogue River. We will meet at the Pine St. location in Central Point and carpool/caravan to the location at the mouth of Bear Creek.
