It’s the 50 year Anniversary of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act and as part of the celebration Friends of the Metolius hosted a family friendly display at the Fish Overlook in Camp Sherman with information about the river and the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. The event was on July 7, a busy weekend on the river, and was well attended.
We collected the Best 50 Ideas on how each of us can protect the Metolius in the future with the theme being “50 ways to love the Metolius, without loving it to death.”
