Cohoho Salmon Fry Release Saturday, December 12 · 11:30 AM | Meet at Farmstead Bridge at Hansen Creek, at Northern State Recreation Area

Come help us release salmon fry and wish them well on their big adventure this holiday season! The event starts at 11:30 AM, and we’ll wrap up once the last fry makes its way downstream.

These young salmon have been growing and thriving at the Children’s Museum of Skagit County, and now they’re ready to begin the next chapter of their journey. This is a wonderful opportunity for families, nature lovers, and curious community members to connect with local salmon habitat and witness a memorable release firsthand.

Free and open to all — no registration required.

Join us Saturday, December 12 to help release the last of the (big!) baby coho salmon raised in the tank at the Children’s Museum of Skagit County. All ages welcome!
