SUMMARY:Volunteer Opportunity: Youth Education Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:It is that season again and we are gearing up to get our middle school students out in the field to start off their restoration design project. We have several field trips coming up in Clallam and Jefferson Counties this fall and are in need of volunteers to help guide students of their first field trip of the Real Learning Real Work program. This field trip they will be performing site assessments to identify habitat quality concerns for salmon and collecting data on their restoration plots. \n  \nWhat to expect as an education volunteer: \nThere are several roles for you to help with! Please communicate with me if you are not comfortable in one of the roles. \n\nSetting-up & cleaning up: this involves transporting equipment to different areas of the site such as tape measure\, bins of work gloves\, tables\, and rain gear.\nActivity Co-leader: With another volunteer educator or staff member\, facilitate an activity for a group of 12-18 students. You will be provided with a facilitator guide that will serve as a quick-reference step-by-step to walk the students through the activity in their journal. Each group of students will have an adult chaperone or teacher from the school with them who will handle all behavior management.\nFloating Guide: float between groups of 4-6 students and help guide them to carry out their assigned tasks\, answer questions\, and help with task such as measuring\, using a compass\, identifying common plants\, etc.\nEquipment/Gear: check out tools and equipment to students\, help them find work gloves that fit\, ensure they return tools/gloves in a clean(ish) and organized fashion.\n\nI will send out an updated schedule and any facilitator guides you might need the week before the field trip. We will meet 30-45 minutes before the students arrive to answer questions\, go over the schedule\, and make sure you feel prepared. \n  \nDates & Locations: \nSequim is our largest school we work with and they split their trip into 2 days\, ½ the 7th grade class on each day. This is our greatest need for volunteers – the more volunteers we have\, the smaller we can keep student groups. Students get way more out of the experience if they are able to work with small groups. \nOctober 8th – Blue Heron at Salmon Creek Wildlife Area \nOctober 10th – Chimacum 7th & 8th at Salmon Creek Wildlife Area (FULL) \nOctober 16th – OCEAN 6th/7th/8th at Salmon Creek Wildlife Area (FULL) \nOctober 17th – Sequim 7th at Dungeness River \nOctober 18th – Sequim 7th at Dungeness River \nPlease sign up HERE.    \nFeel free to reach out to lmccord@nosc.org if you have any questions! \nImage courtesy of Charles Espey.

SUMMARY:Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars for the Salmon Coalition Annual Meeting October 15th! \nWe’re excited to share with you the work we’ve done over the past year\, both in education and restoration projects. We have a great keynote speaker lined up to share about the connection our work has to another unique part of our Pacific Northwest ecosystem – the Pacific Lamprey! \nWe invite you to bring a pie to share with the community to celebrate in true Salmon Coalition fashion! Savory pies are especially appreciated. \nWhen:  \nTuesday\, October 15th \nDoors open at 5pm. The meeting will begin at 5:30pm. \nWhere: \nDungeness River Nature Center \n1943 W Hendrickson Rd\, Sequim\, WA 98382 \n \nA lamprey captured as part of the fish relocation process ahead of the stream restoration project at the Snow Creek Uncas Preserve in the summer of 2023. These unique fish\, inhabit some of the same habitat as salmon and benefit from restoration work. Photo by NOSC. \nAnnouncing our Keynote Speaker: \nMonica Blanchard\, Fish/Lamprey Biologist \nMonica Blanchard works for Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and US Fish and Wildlife\, focusing on conservation and monitoring of native lampreys for both agencies. In this position\, she works on raising awareness about lampreys and collaborates with biologist and managers to incorporate lamprey into projects around the state. Additionally\, she leads and participates in research projects in WA and OR to advance our understanding of lamprey and their habitat use. Prior to this position she worked on salmon and steelhead restoration projects and ESA monitoring in Alaska\, Washington\, and Oregon. One of her favorite things about these fish\, both west coast lampreys and salmonids\, is the great variety of ecosystems they inhabit. \nMonica will speak about the life histories and ecological importance of lamprey as well as the connection between salmon restoration work and these unique fish!

SUMMARY:Volunteer Planting - Orca Recovery Day
DESCRIPTION:Come join us again in celebrating Orca Recovery Day as the Jefferson County Conservation District and the North Olympic Salmon Coalition team up for a planting event at Salmon Creek Wildlife Area! This is important habitat for Endangered Hood Canal summer chum salmon. Recent studies have shown that when Chinook salmon\, the preferred prey of Southern Resident Orcas\, is in short supply\, they’ll supplement their diet with other species\, including chum salmon. \nParking is limited. We highly encourage carpooling! \nPlease bring the following: \n\nGloves\nWater Bottle\nSnacks\nLayers for fall weather\n\nSaturday\, October 19th\, 10am – 12:30pm. \n321 West Uncas Road Port Townsend\, WA 98368
