  Wolf Creek Community Alliance

Wolf Creek (Daspin Seo in Nisenan) is a tributary of the Bear River that runs through Grass Valley, California. The creek is a priceless but neglected resource.
 
Wolf Creek Community Alliance, a volunteer-run 501c3 non-profit organization, exists to protect, enhance, and restore Wolf Creek, its tributaries and watershed.

Our goals

  • To PRESERVE and PROTECT the creek and its watershed for the benefit of present and future generations
  • To ENGENDER community STEWARDSHIP of the creek and its watershed
  • To RESTORE the creek to a condition of optimal health and integrity
  • To MONITOR the physical, chemical, and biological condition of the creek
  • To THRIVE as an organization and thereby have a long-lasting presence and effect in the watershed
