Date: Saturday, June 21, 2025 Time: 10:30 AM -11:30 AM Meeting point: W at Jefferson Avenue and S 19TH ST, UW-T campus. Event details: tacomatreefoundation.org/calendar/solstice Celebrate the first days of summer with trees and water! Starting at UW Tacoma in the heart of downtown, we will walk along the busy streets to the iconic Thea Foss Waterway. We will learn how trees are managed in a downtown landscape and observe how they interact with the downhill stormwater runoff. Once on the ground, what path does runoff take to reach the Puget Sound? What kinds of pollution does it interact with before it gets there? What role do trees play in the water cycle? Dress appropriately for PNW summer weather. Prepare to walk approximately 2 miles on pavement, up and down stairs and steep streets.
