SUMMARY:Forum #2: Smart Growth for Source Water Protection
DESCRIPTION:The Beaver Watershed Alliance presents:  \nSmart Growth for Source Water Protection\nA public forum series focused on growth and water resources in Northwest Arkansas \n  \nForum #2: What do we need to know? What tools are available? What examples exist? Moving closer to achieving our goals in Smart Growth. \nWhen: May 18th\, 11:30 am – 1:30 pm \nWhere: Rogers-Lowell Chamber of Commerce\, Rogers \nBring a goal! What is the biggest goal that you personally want to achieve related to bringing Smart Growth to our region? \nLunch will be provided. RSVP HERE\, email info@beaverwatershedalliance.org\, or call 479-750-8007 \nCertificate of completion will be available. \nDOWNLOAD FLYER \n  \nWHAT IS SMART GROWTH AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS? \n“Smart Growth” covers a range of development and conservation strategies that help protect our health and natural environment and make our communities more attractive\, economically stronger\, and more socially diverse (US EPA).  As we continue to see exponential growth and development in the area\, a vision is needed at a regional level to ensure long-term drinking water supplies and infrastructure (natural and urban) are resilient\, protected and fully functioning for future generations. Northwest Arkansas is home to Beaver Lake\, the drinking water source for 1 in 5 Arkansans\, making it even more important for the area to grow with Smart Growth principles in mind. \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND THESE FORUMS? \nAll are welcome to attend these public forums. We encourage city\, county and community planners to attend\, design and engineering professionals\, government staff\, and encourage water professionals to attend. \nWHAT WILL ATTENDEES TAKE AWAY FROM THESE FORUMS? \nAttendees will participate in conversations on various topics of Smart Growth principles that may apply to Northwest Arkansas\, gain tools for advancing Smart Growth at any scale\, learn about successful case studies\, network with others\, and so much more! \n  \nSpecial thanks to the following: \n

SUMMARY:Glade Ecology & Management Field Day
DESCRIPTION:Join the Beaver Watershed Alliance for a free\, family-friendly educational glade ecology and management field day at the Lake Leatherwood City Park’s Steven Foster Educational Glade in Eureka Springs\, AR.  \nWhen:  Wednesday\, May 24th\, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm noon \nWhere: Steven F. Foster Educational Glade; Lake Leatherwood City Park\, Eureka Springs\, AR. \n1303 Co Rd 204\, Eureka Springs\, AR 72632\, 36.434453\, -93.759812 (Main Building). \n36.43807\, -93.75872 (Steven F. Foster Educational Glade). \n  \nDetails: This walk-and-talk tour will feature educational speakers\, including Eric Fuselier with the Arkansas Native Plant Society\, Brittney Booth\, an expert on Ozark glade ecology\, and Nate Weston\, the Alliance’s Senior Geospatial Ecologist. Participants will see a restored Ozarks glade covered in blooming native wildflowers. They may even spot common glade animals like the beautiful eastern collared lizard! Participants will also learn what makes glades unique\, how effective glade management promotes plant and animal diversity\, and how these efforts improve water quality and local fisheries. \nThe Beaver Lake watershed is home to over 11\,000 glades\, many of which are smaller than an acre in size but possess some of the most biodiverse plant communities in North America. Effective management of glades can prevent habitat loss due to invasive species\, such as eastern red cedar (Juniperus virginiana) and others\, save habitat for incredible creatures threatened by cedar infestations like the eastern collared lizard (Crotaphytus collaris)\, and create fish habitat in Beaver Lake by sinking cut cedar trees. \nThis field trip will include walking/hiking approximately half a mile\, mostly over unpaved dirt trails. Please be sure to wear appropriate footwear. The Alliance will provide water\, snacks\, sunscreen\, and insect repellant\, but you are welcome to bring your own as well. Wearing a brimmed hat and sunglasses is also recommended as the glade itself will be in full sun and very bright. \nTo RSVP or for more information\, email info@beaverwatershedalliance.org or text/call 479-750-8007 \nDownload Flyer \nThank you to event sponsors and partners: National Fish Habitat Partnership\, Arkansas Game and Fish Commission\, Bass Pro Shops\, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers\, Beaver Water District\, Eureka Springs Parks & Recreation Department\, and the Arkansas Native Plant Society. \n
