The Friends of the Hidden River is an outstanding group that have done wonders in our community! This small group of teacher-environmental educators are the ones that got King County, and the entire community on board to agree on, the help fund a $10.3 Million dollar Environmental Center and community park in the Woodiville, WA area. They raised over $1.3M themselves for this project. Now they are working on cool new environmental programming. Recently the Friends of the Hidden River created a cutting edge STEM environmental challenge summer at the new Brightwater Center for summer 2012. They are an exciting group to watch in action. Small, powerful, and great for our community!
