Salmon Celebration
Posted on September 10th, 2007 by Rodney Hsu, webmaster

The False Creek Watershed Society presents the 4th annual Salmon Celebration!

"Remembering Our History, Celebrating the Living"

The 4th annual "Salmon Celebration" will take place on BC Rivers Day, September 30th 2007 at Vanier Park, near the Vancouver Maritime Museum.

12:00pm - 4:00pm, parade begins at 1:00

The Salmon Celebration is a free festival and parade for all ages to:

• honour the spirit of the salmon that historically lived in the streams that flowed into Eastern False Creek
• connect the urban public with local groups who study salmon, save wilderness and encourage urban sustainability
• We are also proud to be part of the events that celebrate September 2007 as "Wild Salmon Month" in Vancouver

We invite all to participate. Bring props and masks; whatever inspires you remember a lost salmon stream!
