THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED!
Due to the fact that the Rogue Ale's Issaquah Brewhouse is closing on Friday, March 6th, we will postpone our next meeting of Salmon, Suds and Science as of now. Keep an eye for the update of the new venue and event date. Thanks for your cooperation and understanding,
Join us at the Issaquah Rogue Brewery to hear Dr. Jeffrey S. Jensen from the UW Bothell Division of Biological Sciences speak on the Kokanee salmon at the North End of Lake Washington. Kokanee, a freshwater form of sockeye salmon, were once very abundant in small streams throughout the Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish basin. Jensen’s talk will focus on the history of kokanee in local waters, causes for their decline, the current distribution of sockeye and kokanee in Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish, and touch upon the steps underway to return kokanee to North Lake Washington.
This event is free and open to the public. Please RSVP to director@flssp.org.
Salmon, Science & Suds is a collaborative program brought to you by Friends of Lake Sammamish State Park, Trout Unlimited, FISH (Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery), Whale Scout and Mid Sound Fisheries.
