Salmon
Watch on the Van Duzen River
Friends
of the Van Duzen River and the Van Duzen Watershed Project will
be sponsoring their annual Salmon Watch Night at the Cuddeback Elementary
School in Carlotta on Wednesday, November 28th from 6:30-8:00.
We have invited Steve Cannata, California Fish and Game Biologist,
to give a talk about the historic salmon runs in the Eel River estuary,
and to lead a panel discussion. Sal Steinberg will share information
about the Science in the Schools projects. Join the Salmon Watch
Project for the Van Duzen River and help to count live fish and
carcasses, and to map spawning grounds. All ages are welcome.
