Read about the progress and development of the Proposed Truckee Meadows Nature Study Area. Opening Soon! Proposed Truckee Meadows Nature Study Area Project Vision It is the vision of Truckee Meadows Parks Foundation to restore the property formerly known as Rosewood Lakes Golf Course to a functional wetland system. The goal of this restoration project is to reopen the area as the Truckee Meadows Nature Study Area (TMNSA) in the summer of 2020. TMNSA will offer an array of recreational and educational activities for members of the community of all ages. This will be accomplished through partnerships with a variety of organizations along with a robust advisory board . > Thanks for submitting! Project Status Elena Larsen is working as the AmeriCorps Wetland Restoration Program Director in cooperation with the City of Reno to develop a master plan for the proposed nature study area. This project is in the preliminary stages and we are very interested in the public’s opinion and ideas on this topic. Elena will be engaging in community events and forums to communicate the project’s goals and ideas to address any questions and concerns regarding the nature study area. This project is funded in part by a grant from the Truckee River Fund at the Community Foundation of Western Nevada. This project is supported by the National Audubon Society-George Whittell Nevada Environmental Fund.

Visit this page to learn more about the proposed Truckee Meadows Nature Study Area! Rosewood Nature Study Area The vision of the Truckee Meadows Nature Study Area is to establish and steward a publicly accessible Great Basin wetland habitat where the community can come to learn about and appreciate the importance of our natural open spaces and local parks. Project Goals Develop a sustainable plan to restore and conserve sensitive wetland and upland habitat for native plants, wildlife, and natural resource management. Rehabilitate existing trails and develop additional non-motorized trails to establish the wetland as a node in the larger network of area parks and open spaces. Offer a state of the art, environmentally conscious nature center with hands-on, interactive exhibits for both children and adults to provide park-based programs, interpretive signage, and outdoor classroom spaces for families, community groups, and schools. Inspire community members to take a proactive volunteer role in the preservation and improvement of our parks and open spaces in order to strengthen the bond between the community and their open spaces. Donate to the Wetland Restoration Project Restoration Progress Status As of August 2020, the first operational year of restoration has been completed. In this first year, we have improved 47 acres through invasive removal and native revegetation, 11,000 linear feet of streambank have been improved, one mile of trail has been enhanced, and both bridges have been repaired. We are now moving into our second year of the restoration project. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram and check back here for updates.

During this global pandemic, help us help our parks, and people, continue to grow with a donation today! Ayúdanos a ayudar a nuestros parques y a la gente a seguir creciendo durante este tiempo. Con una crisis de salud mundial, desempleo y aislamiento social, ha sido difícil saber a dónde acudir para encontrar la paz. A través de esta temporada continua de incertidumbre, los parques sirven como pulmones de nuestra región. Con las repercusiones financieras que se avecinan de 2020 para los muchos presupuestos de parques locales, estatales y federales, sabemos que esta carga recaerá en organizaciones comunitarias como nosotros, y necesitamos su ayuda para lograrlo. Dona Sustaining members help science take flight Truckee Meadows Parks Foundation is able to offer STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) education through K-12 schools, as budgets and resources are being cut. With a third of Washoe County 5th graders not meeting science standards, your monthly contribution will continue to give students the science education they so desperately deserve to succeed. For most, access to a year-round science program never comes The Student Stewards Program utilizes community science to get kids excited about the natural world and their local parks through a STEAM-based curriculum. Students collect and analyze data for real scientific research projects for partners like the Nevada Department of Agriculture. Teach science to save science Arriving at camp for the first time, Camden is excited to put on his “We Learn as We Grow” t-shirt and dive into the box of supplies he sees under the table, where he is given the opportunity to conduct his own experiment. As he continues to challenge himself daily at camp activities, he starts to realize he may want to be an engineer someday.

Volunteer with Truckee Meadows Parks Foundation and help us keep dog waste out of our parks and river. This project is made possible with the help of dedicated volunteers and community partners. What's Your Style? Protect the Truckee River Watershed by Picking up Dog Waste We all have our own style of doing things and this includes how we pick up after our dogs Whether you have the perfect jump shot every time you go for the trash can, pick it up with world record speed, or know the ultimate one handed life hack, when you pick up after your dog you're helping protect the Truckee River Every time it rains or snow melts, dog waste is washed into drains and storm sewers. The waste, full of unhealthy bacteria, flows with the stormwater directly into ponds, lakes, and rivers. In high enough quantities, the bacteria and parasites found in dog waste cause bodies of water to become unsafe for recreation activities like swimming and fishing. 1/4 Find a Station Near You Questions?
