Trivia Night at Barhop Brewery
2026-05-05 18:00 - 20:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Barhop Brewing & Artisan Pizza, 124 W Railroad Ave, Port Angeles, Washington
Think you know your salmon from your steelhead? Your tributaries from your estuaries? How about your 90s sitcoms from your 2000s reality TV? Join us for Tavern Trivia Night at Barhop Brewery in Port Angeles!
When: Tuesday, May 5th, 6–8 PM
Where: Barhop Brewery, Port Angeles
Teams: Bring your team (or join one when you get there)
Cost: Free to play, but come hungry and thirsty!
Bring your friends and introduce them to the Salmon Coaltion’s mission and activities. We’ll have multiple rounds covering everything from salmon science to pop culture, history, geography, and more. Prizes for the top team, and fun for everyone. Plus, with a huge THANK YOU to Barhop Brewery, a percentage of sales for the evening will be donated to NOSC. Whether you’ve been following our work for years or you’re just here for suds, pizza, and big brain bragging rights, we’d love to see you. The North Olympic Salmon Coalition has been restoring rivers and streams across the Peninsula since 1990. This is a chance to meet some of the people behind the work — and maybe learn a thing or two between rounds. RSVPs aren’t required for this event, but we’d love to know if you plan to be there. See you there!

Macroinvertebrate Monitoring Class
2026-05-21 10:00 - 13:00 | HJ Carrol Park, 9884 WA-19, Chimacum, 98325, United States
Join NOSC to monitor macroinvertebrates at Chimacum Creek!
Macroinvertebrate. It’s a term that is familiar to some, but unfamiliar to many. Macroinvertebrates are small organisms that lack a backbone, are visible to the naked eye, and are large enough to be easily collected. Aquatic macroinvertebrates include insects, crustaceans, bivalves, gastropods, and annelids. The particular assemblage of aquatic macroinvertebrates in a given waterway can be an excellent indicator of ecosystem health. This is because different species have varying levels of tolerance to pollution and disturbance. Some, like stoneflies and mayflies are highly sensitive to changes in water quality, while organisms like crayfish, leeches, black flies and midges are much less sensitive. Macroinvertebrate sampling is a fun and relatively simple way to assess stream health and NOSC has been facilitating sampling activities in local streams and rivers for several years. Come join us on Thursday, May 21st from 10 am – 1 pm at HJ Carroll Park in Chimacum as we analyze the creek’s health through macroinvertebrate sampling. This is an activity that is appropriate for all ages, so feel free to bring the family along!
Event Details:
Thursday, May 21st

Please arrive by 10 am for site orientation and training. Bring snacks, water, layers appropriate for our spring weather. If you’d like to participate in the collection of macroinvertebrates from the creek, please bring waterproof boots. NOSC will have a limited supply of hip waders available on a first come first served basis.
