A new volunteer study group, called the North Bend/Snoqualmie Elk Roundtable, has recently been formed by concerned individuals and representatives from various governmental, business, and non-profit entities to study and assess the impact of the rapidly growing elk herd in the upper Snoqualmie Valley. The group will also come up with a range of options to deal with elk impacts. Action programs will need to meet the approval of stakeholders in the Valley as well as the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife.

The next meeting of the roundtable is 6:30 p.m. July 15 at the Meadowbrook Farm Interpretive Center, which is located midway between North Bend and Snoqualmie on Boalch Avenue.
