Mark storm drains to benefit creek: The Adopt A Stream Foundation seeks volunteers to help mark storm drains with “Puget Sound Starts Here” markers near Catherine Creek, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday. Meet at the community park on Bryce Drive, between 35th Place NE and 125th Avenue NE in Lake Stevens.
All materials are provided, and all ages are welcome.
Three-quarters of all toxins in Puget Sound come from yard, street, or developed land storm water runoff, organizers say.
“Scoopy Doo,” the Puget Sound Starts Here mascot, will pose for photos with volunteers and hand out pet-waste bags.
