We will be releasing the 10-12,000 fry that are in the big pond this Friday, 5/2, at 8pm.  Come on down and wish these fry well on their journey down Venema and Piper’s Creeks to Puget Sound and eventually up to Alaska. Hopefully we will see a bunch of them in 2.5-3.5 years.  

The first salmon release of 2025 is happening this Sunday, 3/16. We will be pulling the plug at 7pm. Come on down and help send these fry on their way to Puget Sound and eventually Alaska.
