Coastal Watershed Institute and Harbinger Winery pair up

The Coastal Watershed Institute and Harbinger Winery are sponsoring a commemorative beer to celebrate the contract signing for the upcoming removal of the Elwha dams. The beer, Gone Dam Pale Ale, is being offered at Harbinger Winery, for the month of October. The commemorative artwork, commissioned by CWI, was done by local talent Ken Debondt. We have created a commemorative label, and will also be offering T shirts and postcards (later two items will also be available thru the CWI webpage www.coastalwatershedinstitute.org, beginning in October). Net proceeds from the release and sale of commemorative items will be used for field equipment ( including turbidity meters and a gps unit for nearshore monitoring) and if sufficient, fund student internships and mentor travel.

We’ll be having an informal release social hour on Friday evening, 1 October, we hope you will join us. Either way, block out some time to swing by Harbinger during the month of October to toast the first advent of this long awaited legacy project. And spread the word: The dams are finally coming out-it’s time for a beer!
