Notice from the Salmon Enhancement Program (SEP)  organizing committee:
Please accept this notice as an invitation to our workshop. Volunteers, like you, make up the Public Involvement Program component of the Oceans Habitat and Enhancement Branch and continue to address the goals of Fisheries and Oceans. With adequate support and recognition volunteers will always be there to work with DFO to maintain this renewable resource.
This biennial workshop brings together and recognizes the thousands of volunteers throughout British Columbia who devote many hours of work towards stewardship, increasing fish stocks and enhancing fish habitat. The event provides volunteers with a chance to learn new skills from workshops, share ideas and meet other volunteers from across the province. Beginning at a wine and cheese on Friday evening, volunteers will be officially welcomed to the First Nations Territory and Campbell River, and will have a chance to meet and greet fellow volunteers and guests. Saturday has a full schedule of concurrent workshops and presentations designed to fulfill our theme of “Wetlands to Waves: sustainability through stewardship”, ending with a dinner in the evening for registrants and invited guests. Sunday is a time for us to showcase Campbell River and our local area with respect to stewardship projects, unique natural features and local attractions.
Our goal is to provide a learning opportunity for our many salmon stewardship volunteers from around the province while celebrating this incredible dedication to our renewable resource. Campbell River provides you with the unique opportunity to experience both the fresh water and marine environments salmon need to be successful and thrive.
We look forward to seeing you in Campbell River.
