| UPCOMING MEETINGS - Be there or be Square! All meetings are held at the Korean Presbyterian Church, 635 Adrian Way. GOPHER WORKSHOP - SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25th - 9:30am-11:30am Saturday, February 25: Help Prevent Grophers From Damaging Levees & Property (complimentary continental breakfast from 9:00am-9:30am). Location: Osher Marin Jewish Community Center. The Marin County Flood Control and Water Conservation District has a program to manage gophers found on levees, but needs residents' help to slow their continual migration to levees from surrounding areas. Gopher holes deteriorate levees and can lead to larger problems such as water seepage and, in extreme cases, levee failure. Continental Breakfast will be served from 9:00-9:30am hosted by the SVNA. WATERSHED PRESENTATION - WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 29th - 7pm Wednesday, February 29: Watershed Presentation – Mark your calendars!
