Megaloads? Tar Sands? Pipelines? Climate Change? What’s the Connection? Explore these questions with local citizens who journeyed to the tar sands of northern Alberta to join the First Nations (Native Americans) and other concerned citizens from across the continent for the Healing Walk. Led by First Nations elders and leaders, participants witnessed the scale of environmental devastation caused by tar sands mining and crude oil processing.

Six local healing walkers will share what they learned on their solidarity journey, connecting the local and regional megaloads, huge pipeline projects, impacts on people and places, and overarching climate change and moral issues. Their presentation and discussion, A Healing Walk Through the Alberta Tar Sands, will be on Saturday, December 7 from 3 to 5pm. This event is in the Arts Workshop room immediately following the Winter Market at the 1912 Center, 412 E. Third St., Moscow. Sponsored by the Palouse Environmental Sustainability Coalition, Wild Idaho Rising Tide, Idaho Sierra Club and 350 Idaho. For further information, contact Pat Fuerst, epfuerst@frontier.com.

We are excited to show off the PCEI Nature Center after the sun goes down! Full moon hikes will be centered on nocturnal animals, phases of the moon, history and folklore surrounding our lunar companion. Star parties are all about looking up! We’ll point the telescopes up, turn off the lights, and learn about the “creatures” in the night sky. Bring the family for these unique opportunities!

Cost: Free for PCEI members and K-12 students, $5 for non-members
