Hyde Creek Open House Flyer 2016

Date:  Saturday, April 23rd
Time:  10:00 am to 3:00 pm
Where:  Hyde Creek Education Centre (3636 Coast Meridian Road)

You can help the Hyde Creek Watershed Society members release thousands of salmon into Hyde Creek in April each year. Members have spent 18 months raising coho from eggs through to fry and smolt stages and these coho are now ready to travel to the ocean.

Carry a bucket of salmon from the hatchery to the creek where you will release them and send them on their journey to the ocean.

While you’re at the hatchery, visit the Education Centre and have a tour with one of the volunteer members. Exhibits and crafts are part of the day, along with a fund raising hot dog BBQ.
