We want to know about your wildlife sightings in the San Leandro Creek watershed. Whether you're hiking in the upper watershed in the Oakland Hills, at a city park along the creek, or strolling at Arrowhead Marsh, let us know what wildlife you're seeing in the air, the water, or on land by emailing Watershed Awareness Coordinator Laurey Hemenway at laureyh@fslc.org.

Learning about the ecosystem of the creek and surrounding watershed |
Friends of San Leandro Creek would like to thank everyone who participated in the Watershed Festival on April 24. This year the Hayward Shoreline Interpretive Center, East Hills Green Teens, Bancroft Middle School Jazz Band, Rock Steady Juggling, California Jewels, and The Principled Academy all helped to make this event both fun and educational. The City of San Leandro Environmental Services was on-site and collected 75 pounds of technotrash and 1200 pounds of household batteries. Thanks again everyone!
