RALLY FOR CLEAN WATER

In September 2022, we held our first-ever RALLY FOR CLEAN WATER at the Center for the Arts, which was a great success! This free event brought the community together to raise awareness, discuss solutions, and inspire action for the water quality issues facing Teton County with fun, interactive, and science-based lobby exhibits for the whole family.

In the theater, POWJH Executive Director, Meghan Quinn, presented “The State of Water in Teton County.” Our Keynote speaker, Dr. F. Richard (Ric) Hauer, shared his knowledgeable and powerful message about the importance of protecting water quality in gravel-bed river ecosystems, like the Snake River, from the effects caused by human impacts. Ric is the preeminent scholar about “Invisible Rivers” and preserving water quality in gravel-bed floodplains that support our entire ecosystem.

For long-term water protection, we need broad awareness and cooperation amongst individuals, businesses, elected officials, and visitors. Learn more about the future of clean water in Jackson Hole, what factors make this a critical issue that requires our immediate attention, and what you can do to help. As a headwaters community, Jackson Hole could become a shining example of forward-thinking water quality solutions.
