We are excited to announce that SPLASH 2010 raised $4,200! Over 60 people attended this year’s event and enjoyed a host of donated goodies including steamed mussels provided by Taylor Shellfish, Fish Brewery beer and Olympic Mountain Ice Cream. There were loads of wonderful appetizers on the sandbar and the natural beauty of the Trail provided the perfect venue for a sunny August day. One guest exclaimed “This is the best nature walk I’ve ever been on!” We’d also like to thank all the event volunteers who worked tirelessly to make this event a success – you know who you are!
We are getting ready for this years CHUM RUN! To prepare for another great year of wild salmon viewing at the trail, we are hosting a Docent Training on Saturday, October 23 at 9:00 a.m. This annual training keeps our Docent volunteers up-to-date on the latest chum information for sharing with trail visitors. It lasts for 7 hours, so come prepared for the fall northwest weather possibilities. Please call Lance at 360/412-0808 Ext 2 to register or for more information.
The Trail will open Monday, November 1 for school groups. If your school would like to visit the trail during the week, please contact Mason Conservation District at (360) 427-9436 Ext 13.
The general public can visit the Trail starting Saturday, November 6. The trail will be open, with trained Docents to answer questions, on all weekends in November, Veterans Day and the day after Thanksgiving from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
We received a matching funds grant from National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to fix the viewing platform that was damaged last winter. We are soliciting donations to help with the match. Please make a donation on-line or by sending a check or money order. All donations are tax deductible.
