SPSSEG Annual Meeting

Katie — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 23:48:30 +0000

Does listening to Joe Kane, Executive Director for the Nisqually Land Trust, recount his journey from the source of the Amazon River to the sea, sound exciting? Does hearing about the current restoration work being accomplished in South Sound, sound interesting? How about sampling tasty treats provided by Taylor Shellfish? If the answer to any or all of the above is yes!, then the SPSSEG Annual Meeting is the place for you!

Please join us on January 26, 2012 from 5:30-8pm at the Lacey Community Center to learn more about your local Regional Fisheries Enhancement Group (RFEG) and salmon restoration in the South Sound. (Friends and Family are more than welcome!)

Kennedy Creek Salmon Trail Closes

Jerilyn Walley — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 01:38:24 +0000

Another great season of watching Chum spawn in the beautiful Kennedy and Fiscus Creeks has come to a close. We would like to extend a hearty “Thanks!” to all those dedicated Docents who spent hours providing salmon knowledge to 5th graders from the Olympia School District, rain or shine. The trail was open to the general public since October 29, with Docents providing tours and general information about Chum behavior and salmon needs. If you were one of the lucky visitors to the trail, please come back next year and bring a friend.

We would like to thank the Mason Conservation District and Taylor Shellfish for their continued support of the Kennedy Creek Salmon Trail – a premier Northwest interpretive trail.

Upcoming Events

admin — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 21:32:49 +0000

As we move closer to summer, SPSSEG is working hard to implement education and outreach for our organization. We will be participating in numerous environmental events around the Puget Sound here in the next couple of months.

The first event coming up is Forest Festival Field Day on Thursday, April 28th. This event is for Mason County 5th graders to come and learn about the forest ecosystem and how it applies to their everyday lives. SPSSEG will be speaking about the connections between salmon and the forest.

The next event we will be participating in is the Tacoma-Pierce County Children’s Water Festival on Friday, April 29th. Over 750 fifth-grade students from throughout Pierce County will be attending the 2011 Festival. Each classroom group will attend six different 25-minute sessions, including interactive classroom activities, outdoor games, larger “game show” style presentations, and an “Expo Hall” filled with all kinds of water related displays and activities. SPSSEG will have a display in the “Expo Hall” that explains how keeping our watersheds clean is beneficial to our salmon runs.

Earth Day is an event put on by Mason County Conservation District and SPSSEG will be attending this event to talk about our organization. This event will have many different aspects including hands-on family friendly activities related to natural resources; on site workshops; restoration opportunities; information from local resource agencies and volunteer groups; and Puget Sound Starts Here posters, stickers, and information on how you can help Puget Sound.

Lastly, SPSSEG will be participating in Mason County’s “Kids With Conservation Knowledge” (KWCK) event on May 27th, and May 28th. This event will be kind of like a field day for kids to come and play outside and learn how to be more conscientious of their impacts on the natural environment, and what they can do to help.

SPSSEG is proud to be participating in these upcoming educational events and we hope to do more in the future. Check back at the end of the month for pictures and information on how these events turned out!

Work Party A Success!

Thanks so much to everyone who came out to the Kennedy Creek Work Party/Chum Emergence Viewing! I had so much fun working with you all, and it was interesting to see the little tiny chum fry as they swam around in the creek. It was amazing how much work we got done in such a short time! The trail looks absolutely wonderful and the new viewing platform is finally finished! Don’t forget to come visit the trail during the months of October and November to see the salmon spawn and see all the changes to the forest surrounding the trail and the creek. Thanks again, we couldn’t have done it without all of our volunteers!
