The Chum Outmigration Project is a critical part of our salmon restoration efforts in the Hood Canal. This is complimentary research to our Summer Chum Project. By researching the full life cycle, we will find indicators about the stability of that salmon run, as well as make informed decisions on how to help restore this ESA threatened species.
As a volunteer you will assist HCSEG staff and interns to conduct juvenile screw trap checks and learn about fish sampling protocols. All waders/boots/equipment will be provided!
Please plan to meet at the Salmon Center (600 NE Roessel Rd., Belfair) at 9AM for departure.

Volunteer at a planting party with HCSEG! We will be planting native shrubs and conifers in critical salmon habitat around the Hood Canal watershed.
Removing invasive plant species and bringing in more native varieties has helped our local ecosystems bounce back and develop healthy habitats for salmon once more. If you are looking for ways to really make a positive impact on your local environment, improving salmon habitat is one of the best ways you can personally take action to help restore threatened Pacific Northwest salmon species.
Please wear warm clothes, boots, and work gloves!
Hot drinks (Coffee and tea), and snacks will be provided.
