Great Salmon Send Off 2020 – CANCELLED

CANCELLED

“As you all must have anticipated, we’ve had to make the sad decision to cancel the public Great Salmon Send-Off event on May 9th, 2020 as a safety measure due to the current Coronavirus.
– – –
We want to thank you, the community, for your ongoing support. This event has always been about education. We will continue to protect, preserve, and enhance Burnaby’s urban forest and salmon-bearing stream.

Stay safe and we will all get through this together.

Stoney Creek Environment Committee President”
