A belated Earth Day review…read more.. I took a tour of this wetland SE of Renton today, a bog being preserved by the group S.H.A.D.O.W. S.H.A.D.O.W. = Save Habitat and Diversity of Wetlands This non-profit group promotes preservation and protection of wetlands. SHADOW provides direct support and assistance, both financial and non-financial, to landowners of environmentally sensitive property and to charitable organizations whose purpose is to preserve environmentally sensitive regions. The organization promotes environmental research, public education and development of ecologically sensitive environmental education facilities with the goal of maintaining and preserving the land for biological and wildlife preservation. One example of this type of activity is the work done at Shadow Lake Bog. Shadow Lake Bog is recognized by the King County Council as a significant wetland and wildlife habitat for Southeast King County. The founders of SHADOW, an area that was previously known as a dumping ground for old refrigerators, cars, and other trash has been cleared out and the area restored through planting and persistent maintenance of native plant species. Volunteers, including the Washington Conservation Corps and local Boy Scouts, constructed a boardwalk into the bog wetland. The boardwalk trail enables visitors to experience the sights and sounds of the unique bog habitat without the difficulty of navigating the uneven terrain and without disturbing the habitat. The Richter Interpretive Center on the grounds includes an education room, with an extensive resource library of books and literature pertinent to their cause, covering topics from birds and amphibians to ecologically sensitive gardening practices and wetland habitats. The interpretive center is also available as a meeting room for interested groups. S.H.A.D.O.W. does offer tours to interested school and community groups http://www.shadowhabitat.org/education/

It has been wonderful to see the contribution of this organization's efforts in nurturing a growing arts community in Maple Valley. They started with Art Festival as a part of the community's Maple Valley Days and have expanded into supporting many local performing arts groups from the Youth Symphony to MV Big Band to the creation and production of new plays and creative writing. Every month at their center - The Leaf, they have a new visual arts exhibit with an opening night reception where you can meet the artist, Open Mic which brings so many amazingly talented performers together for a very fun evening, artist critique groups, Third Word where writers share their stories and various classes . This is a wonderful community treasure, not only because of its broad support of the arts, but it brings our community together through their events, programs and projects. Check out their events calendar on the web. (The center is a little hard to find since it is behind the businesses which face the Maple Valley Highway. Just drive around back.)
