In 2022 BirdFest & Bluegrass will be entirely in person! The City of Ridgefield will be hosting in-person in-town events, including vendors and music in Downtown Ridgefield, plus we will have a Vlessing from Sam Robinson of the Chinook Indian Nation at 10am, a Geology walk at 10:30, a self-guided Carty Unit Refuge hike, Spotting Scopes, wandering trail stewards to answer questions, Sandhill Crane Tours, tours of the new Refuge office building, the Photo Contest reveal, and a bus tour of the River ‘S’ Unit!
The Refuge will be fee-free, and seasonal trails will be open for an extra weekend!
