We're seeking a few folks who have the capacity and interest to do deep research into the creek's history - flora, fauna, geology, city planning, race relations - we're very focused on including BIPOC histories embedded in the watersheds we're touring. This work requires living local to the Bay Area. (You can see the livestreams that will be embedded in Temescal Creek: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQpdHgRKqZix9UxkboVxyQ) Work includes: Really interesting research into the creek's history, community groups and activities, scientific studies, primary species, restoration activities, social and environmental justice and where it is daylighted (above ground) and where the creek is underneath in pipes. Writing text, gathering existing images for website and for printable creek guide Walking/biking the creeks to take pictures to create online maps with points of interest for those unable to currently get out into the watersheds (or who aren't local).

We're building natural and cultural history StoryMaps (https://storymaps.com/) of SF East Bay Creeks. A team of two is already working on the content but neither has chops in ArcGIS. We'll be making maps of the creeks (KMZ maps already exist of each watershed), and where certain things are located or occurred. It's a super fun project with smart, interesting folks (the other team members are a senior in natural resources and a recent PhD grad in integrative biology, both from UCBerkeley. Please send a short cover letter with your interest and a cv with your experience. Thanks!

We are creating fascinating cultural and natural history tours of creek watersheds in the San Francisco East Bay. The tours are posted on the app PocketSights, listed under Wholly H2O and Walking Waterhoods. While we want people of all ages to take our tours, they are especially geared toward grade and high schools, with an emphasis is on telling the story of black, indigenous, people of color. The work consists of both research and writing. It necessitates going beyond the "wikipedia-level" research and we shoot for a friendly tone in telling the stories of flora, fauna and human history in each particular location we cover. Desired Skills: are curious and are tickled by natural and cultural history enjoy deep-dive research be a solidly evocative and engaging writer who can translate information into scintillating and inviting story live local to the SF BayArea (you walk sections of a watershed about once a month) be available for 15-45 minute meeting once a week with other writers Minimum 5 month commitment More info on our website by searching "Wholly H2O" and "Walking Watersheds".
