River Run Network Creek Walk: Explore the Cortaro Narrows

Pima County Flood Control is in Phase 2 of the Santa Cruz River Cortaro Narrows Training Structures project. What's been done? We'll show you!

You'll hear from Janice Hughes, PE, RG and Matthew Lutheran, PLA about the work done in Phase 1 and what's in store to enhance the area with stream restoration, grade control structures, revegetation, and invasive species removal. There is so much potential for this section of river, from creating habitat for Sonora Mud Turtles to seeing native fish and creating bird habitat, we look forward to showing you what's in store.

This event is organized through WMG’s River Run Network (RRN). The RRN is a program that honors the heritage of our rivers and the value that water holds for the peoples of Southern Arizona. We acknowledge the indigenous communities that have respected and stewarded our rivers for thousands of years and the Pascua Yaqui, Tohono O’odham, and Latino communities that continue to steward the rivers today. Members work together to learn about and steward our rivers through creek walks, restoration activities, river clean-ups, and educational workshops. If you are not yet a member, we will add you to the RRN when you register for this event. Membership is free and includes a regular e-newsletter with upcoming events.
