Every other year, we print beautiful photo calendars and distribute them around the watershed. These calendars are so popular, and they also contain our annual communication, a snapshot of the work we’ve done over the past year.

This year’s calendars are currently being printed; we hope to have them in hand by December 18th.

Please check back on this post for more up to date information, we will post here when the calendars get distributed. Here’s a sneak peek of the new cover design–congrats to Nicole Grabow for this winning combination of 4 pictures through the seasons on the creek in Bloomington.

Thank you to Pat of The Design Company for her beautiful graphic design of this calendar.

Where can I get a calendar?

Calendars are distributed, free of charge, to select locations around the watershed; see the list below to find the one closest to you. You can also request a mailed calendar by contacting Gael Zembal (gzembal@ninemilecreek.org), who will put your name and address on the mailing list.
