Dear Friend, Saturday's event was everything we could've hoped for, and a lot more. As always, we had a wonderful time meeting and reconnecting with so many long-time friends and WaterWatch supporters, and we successfully auctioned off dozens of generous, one-of-a-kind donor packages not available anywhere else. And because of your generosity and support, we'll have an even stronger hand heading into the next legislative session in Salem, and we're better equipped than ever to serve in our role as a watchdog to take on the legal fights to preserve Oregon's rivers, watersheds, and instream water rights. And that's just the beginning. Throughout the remainder of the year and into 2024 WaterWatch will continue leading the way in Oregon in removing obsolete barriers to fish passage on our rivers and creeks, reform antiquated water laws, defend and protect our state's remaining groundwater resources from overuse and eradication, and protect iconic species and special places throughout the state. Thank you again to our incredible array of local sponsors, and to everyone who donated an auction item or package. You're a huge part of the WaterWatch family, and so much of our success on Saturday is because of you. And if you were a little late raising your paddle or missed out on a critical auction package, no shame. Remember, you can still make a contribution to WaterWatch of Oregon throughout the year.
