The city of Edmonds would like to thank the Edmonds Backyard Wildlife Habitat Project and the National Wildlife Federation for their sponsorship of and partnership in organizing the Watershed Fun Fair &Community Wildlife Habitat Certification Celebration on April 24.

Thank you, Costco, for the donated refreshments. Thanks to all the volunteers, exhibitors, entertainers and speakers who took time out on a busy Saturday to come to Yost Park and share their knowledge and inspiration with members of the community who attended the event.

Thank you to all who helped on April 25 with the Grand Opening of the Native Plant Demonstration Garden and those who hosted tours of their Certified Backyard Wildlife Habitats.

A double thank you is due to those tireless volunteers who organized and helped with both events! And, lastly, thank you to all who participated, and especially the parents who brought their children to learn about watersheds, wildlife and sustainability.
