Save Shelton View Forest

SVFSA is looking to expand our board membership! If you've been wanting to get more involved in protecting Shelton View Forest, now is a great time! We need folks with experience in communications, restoration ecology, event planning, community outreach, fundraising, grant writing, and more!

Fill out the interest form below to get started. Someone will be in contact with you to schedule a casual get-to-know-you call.

Calling all birders novice to professional!
 

Shelton View Forest is now listed as a birding hotspot on EBird! Enter your observations online or on the EBird app and help us collect data on the many birds that live in the Forest!

Your representatives need to hear from you! Email Bothell City Council and advocate for the preservation of Shelton View Forest.

In your message, you could talk about your recent visit to the forest, why preserving green space is important to you, attach photos of your family enjoying a hike - whatever you'd like. Your voice matters and the more people who speak up the better. Let us know if you get a reply. 

A quick and easy way to help us protect Shelton View Forest is to spread the word about it! Invite your friends and family to join you for a hike. Share about the forest on social media. Invite others to volunteer with you. Put a SVF sign up in your yard. Wear your SVF t-shirt around town. And more!

Thank you to all of those who have submitted letters to the editor at the Bothell Kenmore Reporter! This is a great way to get the word out in the community and show support for the forest! Tell your personal story about why the forest matters to you and why you think it should be protected. Please let us know if your letter is published (sheltonviewforest@gmail.com)! 

Help our dedicated volunteers keep the forest clean for visitors and wildlife. If you find trash in the forest, pick it up and pack it out of the forest. There is no trash collection service in the forest, so please do not leave trash at the trailheads. Thank you for doing your part to leave no trace!
