On July 24th, Schrems volunteers Stuart Decker, John Hastings, Jim Flamming, Dave Smith and Rich Steketee assisted  project leader Josh Zuiderveen installing a boulder cross vain to neck down the stream channel as it passes under Northland Drive. As a result, sediment will be trapped on the edges and a deeper riffle pool will now run through the center.
