On August 21st, 2025, the Clackamas River Basin Council hosted our 23rd Annual Clackamas Watershed Celebration—a night filled with inspiration, community, and commitment to protecting the Clackamas River. We were delighted to gather with friends, partners, and new supporters who share our passion for healthy rivers, thriving fish and wildlife, and clean drinking water.

This year’s theme, Seeds of Change, highlighted how small actions, when nurtured, grow into lasting impact. From river cleanups to streamside plantings, every act of stewardship contributes to a stronger and more resilient watershed. Our video presentation shared some of the incredible restoration work happening across the Clackamas—and the community members making it possible.

A Night of Generosity

Thanks to your support, we raised an estimated $15,000 (net) to support projects that improve fish and wildlife habitat, restore streamside forests, and protect drinking water for over 300,000 Oregonians. We are humbled by the generosity of our community and energized to continue this work together.

Inspiring Voices

We were honored to hear from guest speakers Renee Harbor, Linea Gagliano, and Julia Eden, who reminded us of the power of collaboration, storytelling, and stewardship. Their words set the tone for an evening of celebration and renewal.

What’s Next?

We’re keeping the momentum going with two upcoming stewardship events:

Mark your calendars—we’d love to see you there!
