Film premier
Friday, August 29
Join us for the premier of The Battle for Mono Lake, an exciting documentary film about the struggle to protect Mono produced by Stephen Fisher in
association with KTEH, San Jose. Prior to the showing, join us for a reception for Steve and the Committee's Executive Director Frances Spivy-Weber.
Rehydration and Picnic
Saturday, August 30
Start the day birdwatching and watering young trees along Mono's creeks. Then join us at the lakeshore to renew our commitment to Mono Lake with the annual Rehydration Ceremony. Following on the heels of the Rehydration Ceremony, bring a lunch and join us at County Park for a round of updates on Mono Lake, stream and waterfowl habitat restoration, and other current news.
Restoration Day
Sunday, August 31
Take part in the real work of rebuilding Mono's health! We'll spend the morning planting and watering trees to help restore the damage caused by fifty years of water diversions from the Mono Basin. It's a great opportunity to do hard but meaningful restoration work. As a special opportunity, join biologist David Herbst in the afternoon to explore one of Mono's tributaries and discuss ways of assessing stream health.
Restoration Day
Monday, September 1
Another half-day of restoration work including tree planting, watering, and cleanup projects. Additional opportunities include guided Mono Lake canoe tours (reservations required) and natural history walks.
