The Flathead CORE is a network of individuals and organizations working together to increase awareness and understanding about the natural, historical and cultural resources of the Flathead Region. WLI has been a member of the Flathead CORE Watershed Education Committee since 2009. Through this relationship, WLI contributed content and reviews for the Flathead Watershed Sourcebook: A Guide to An Extraordinary Place which was authored, coordinated, and published in 2010 with a 2nd edition in 2017 by WLI’s former Science & Education Director, Lori Curtis. The book was produced in print, is available on CD, and was developed into a complete website www.flatheadwatershed.org.

The Watershed Education Committee—in cooperation with Montana State University—also developed the Flathead Watershed Sourcebook Educators’ “Guide”. A companion curriculum to the Flathead Watershed Sourcebook, the Guide provides a set of engaging activities that enable educators to creatively introduce middle school students to resource conservation concepts while meeting Montana State curriculum standards.
