Page 10 Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, Ore. Wednesday, Oct. 21, 2009 Selma’s Siskiyou Field Institute expands environmental education By SCOTT JORGENSEN IVN Staff Writer Selma-based Siskiyou Field Institute (SFI) is taking solid steps to extend its reach into the broader community. Executive Director Arnie Green said that SFI has en- tered several partnerships to ensure greater access to its environmental education pro- grams. Among them is a three- year research project that will be conducted at SFI’s Deer Creek Center by the Univer- sity of Oregon/Eugene, Green said. The study emphasis will be on determining the effect of global climate change on plants indigenous to the re- gion, and Green said that the center is one of only three Pacific Northwest sites se- lected for the study. SFI also has entered a partnership with Klamath Bird Observatory. Green said that group operates mostly in Jackson County, and that working with SFI will enable it to work in Josephine County. In exchange, SFI will reap the benefits of that group’s knowledge, he said. A series of appearances and presentations at area schools have been planned, Green said, along with field trips in fall and spring. Another partnership with the Oregon Caves National Monument will involve tak- ing schoolchildren to the caves with Deer Creek Center personnel explaining the similarities and differences between their watersheds, Green said. SFI was included in a 21st Century Community Schools Grant submitted by Three Rivers School District, Green said, and will be work- ing with around 10 classes. More improvements also have been made to the Deer Creek Ranch property. A second yurt was erected by students and staff members from Southern Oregon Uni- versity at Ashland, and a plat- form has been put up for tents. That means that up to 40 people can be housed on- site, Green said. Two other capital im- provements are being eyed at SFI. Research sometimes is conducted in classrooms at the center, which can conflict with instruction. As such, Green said SFI hopes to soon pursue the construction of a separate research facility. “That’s the next step,” Green said. A bedroom at the center still is used as office space, Green said, but the construc- tion of a stand-alone educa- tional facility would add to the amount of areas available for such use. He expressed optimism that a foundation may be will- ing to put up a challenge grant for the research facility. That would be beneficial to SFI, Green said, as it has re- ceived grants from the Ore- gon Community Foundation, Collins Foundation and Car- penter Foundation during the past few months. The center has seen in- creased use as a retreat facil- ity, which was a goal that Green established after as- suming his position at SFI. The site has been utilized in recent weeks to host the governor’s economic revitali- zation team, the Oregon Board of Forestry, the United Way of Jackson County, the board of directors of Cycle Oregon, and Substance Abuse Community Action Team. Green said he finds that encouraging. “We’re getting our place on the map,” he said. “It’s picking up. People are begin- ning to realize we’re here.” Illinois Valley News is an equal-opportunity advertising medium. Phone 592-2541. LEGAL NOTICE TRUSTEE’S NOTICE OF SALE T.S.
