Always wanted to wear a mayfly costume? Saturday, May 11, from 2-4 the Coos Watershed Association is partnering with the Coos Bay Public Library to offer a costume making workshop at the Coos Bay Public Library. The workshop is being offered in preparation for the upcoming Mayfly Festival coordinated by the Coos Watershed Association. All supplies will be provided. Pre-registration is required; call the library at (541) 269-1101 x 3606 or register on the Coos Bay Public Library’s website. The Mayfly Festival is an event created by the Coos Watershed Association and local partners that sheds light on the connections between community, the environment and water. The festival is a free, all-ages celebration of watershed ecology and interconnectedness through activities, games, live music and art. This year’s Mayfly Festival is being held at Mingus Park on May 18 from 11am-3pm. The Coos Watershed Association has been leading innovative science, restoration, monitoring, and education programs with the Coos watershed community since 1994. The organization is one of Oregon’s 90+ watershed councils, which are defined as locally organized, voluntary, non-regulatory groups established to improve the condition of watersheds in their local area. For the Coos Watershed Association that is all the water and land that falls within the 610 square mile Coos watershed. For additional information about programs being offered by the Coos Bay Public Library please contact the library by calling (541) 269-1101 x3606 or by visiting the library’s website at https://www.coosbaylibrary.org. People with specific questions about the costume making workshop or Mayfly Festival can contact Karen Klietz at kklietz@cooswatershed.org.
