Wild Salmon Hall of Fame
The purpose of the Wild Salmon Hall of Fame is to honor and celebrate people
who have demonstrated, over time, actions that have
inspired and which continue to
guide a passion for the preservation and recovery of abundant and diverse
Wild Salmon populations throughout the Pacific Northwest
( Alaska, British Columbia, California, Idaho, Oregon and Washington).

Historically, nominations have been gathered from around the Northwest.
The winner was chosen by a selection committee consisting of
Congressman Norm Dicks;
Bill Ruckelshaus, Puget Sound Partnership Leadership Council Chair;
Billy Frank Jr, Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission Chair;
Charles Corrarino, Conservation Program Manager, Oregon Dept of Fish and Wildlife.

 

This year the Wild Salmon Hall of Fame award recipient has already been chosen and we have created a new experience to share the story of Wild Salmon with the community.  The event is scheduled for Saturday, September 11, 2010. Please click the link below for more details...
