More volunteer opportunities are available at the Seymour Salmon Hatchery in North Vancouver this week. Here's what the hatchery will be up to:

April 28th - Coho Sampling and Moving

Before we release our coho, a sample is taken to determine the average weight and length. We also check to see if they are smolting. This same day we will move 15,000 coho to a separate pond for a different release.

April 29th - General Help

Help with the basics around the hatchery. Cleaning troughs, feeding fish, and a chum release at the end of the day. Come for the morning, afternoon, or the whole day!

April 30th/May 1st - Snorkel Survey

Our usual requirements apply for this survey (physically fit, comfortable in the water, and able to fit in our drysuits). The good news is the water is getting warmer and the weather is great! No more cold hands and feet.
