Cleaning Pond and Ponding the Coho

  • Willow Creek Salmon and Watershed Education Center 95 Pine Street Edmonds, WA, 98020 United States (map)

Time to move the coho to the pond! But first the pond needs to be cleaned and prepped for the 80,000 new coho fry.

Please join us in cleaning the pond and then ponding the coho. This event goes all day, but there is a significant break between cleaning the pond and moving the coho.

Cleaning the pond can be slippery,  so please wear waders if you have them or non-slip shoes. We will provide the supplies to clean the pond but do not have extra boots, waders or other PPE. Cleaning the pond will likely go from 9 am - 11 am (ish), then there will be a lunch break until 3 pm when the fish can be ponded (the pond takes about 3 hours to fill to a level where the fish can be moved).

If you have any questions, please email kaelie@soundsalmonsolutions.org 

Please note that this event is capped at 20 volunteers but if it fills up, please email Kaelie if you’d like to join.
