First Annual "Kennedy Creek Salmon Splash"

Message from the Executive Director

The highlight of SPSSEG's community education program is the Kennedy Creek Salmon Trail. We work with the Mason Conservation District to strengthen the Kennedy Creek curriculum each year. However, limited funding is preventing us from maintaining and expanding the program.

This year, we are raising funds at the first annual "Kennedy Creek Salmon Splash." This fund raising event will be held on Saturday, August 16th from 4:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. A Mason County Transportation Bus, free of charge, will depart the Kamilche Transit Center at 3:30 p.m. and return after the event. Tickets to the event are $30 per person; for every ticket purchased, 10 students will be able to visit the trail in 2008. Admission tickets include a shellfish dinner, beer, wine, and desserts. Live music will be provided by local band RiverHouse. Also, consider visiting the Squaxin Island SalmonFest , a free family event, runs from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. at Kamilche.

Please RSVP by August 11. If you are unable to attend, please consider providing a financial contribution. SPSSEG is a 501 (c)(3) organization and all donations are considered tax deductible to the full extent of the law. Your continued interest and dedication will keep the Trail thriving. Since Jeff Cederholm and others drew the overall Trail concept on a napkin ten years ago, we have come a long way. I am looking forward to our continued success over the next 10 years!

Sincerely,

Lance Winecka
