Join us January 17, 2025 from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. at Centralia College for a viewing of The Lost Salmon, which “chronicles the plight and potential recovery of the iconic spring chinook salmon of the Pacific Northwest. Faced with extinction in many river systems of the West, a new genetic discovery could aid in their recovery. Once teaming in the millions and a sacrament for the oldest civilizations in the Americas, time is running out for the genetically distinct wild salmon” (PBS). Come eat popcorn and discuss what we can do to help save this incredible fish that call our rivers home!

Join us for a hands-on workshop learning all about the tiny critters living in our local waterways! Daron Williams, a Habitat Biologist for the Department of Fish and Wildlife, will guide us in sampling and identifying macroinvertebrates, and speak on what they can tell us about the health of our streams. Don’t miss out on an opportunity to explore an important conservation area (managed by Capitol Land Trust) and get up close and personal with these fascinating (and often overlooked) creatures. Exact location provided after RSVP – limited spots available!
We recommend dressing warm and waterproof! Rubber boots are recommended, as you will have a chance to step into the stream to collect samples. Terrain is relatively flat but bumpy. Participants will not be expected to walk more than half a mile. There are no facilities on site, so please make sure to go before the workshop if a bush is not your ideal bathroom!
