Full through May 10, 2023. Taking summer internship requests. We are creating a super cool on-line and in-person set of creek tours in the San Francisco East Bay. 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, (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). Supporting the live-streaming creek walking with a naturalist events that we're doing in various watersheds These tours will be so useful to folks stuck at home, and also for those who live nearby who may be able to safely walk sections of the creeks. In the long run, when we're able to do the creek walks in public We're looking for 2-3 additional volunteers that are capable researchers, can take initiative, keep to a schedule, good team communicator, and enjoy themselves as they work. Big BIG plus if you are a good writer. There are a lot of moving pieces so you need to be organized. Loving creek ecology isn't a bad add-on. https://whollyh2o.org/walking-watersheds-2/

Wholly H2O produced numerous livestreams during COVID. Now we are producing legacy videos with creek experts, currently completing Strawberry Creek videos. This means filming on location by the creeks with the experts. Then editing that into a video, with some start and end cards, and music dropped in in a few spots. Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQpdHgRKqZix9UxkboVxyQ (these are mostly all other live streamed and the ore-produced we've done aren't up yet) The content is related to watershed ecosystem education. Simple work, with fascinating content. Please communicate well, have some established skills that you mention in your reach out to us. Looking forward to working with you.

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".
