Environmental educators at the South Yuba River Citizens League just finished up another season of Salmon Expedition field trips on the Lower Yuba. These trips take students to see spawning wild Chinook Salmon, learn about the history of our watershed and the Nisenan people within it, and visit Lower Long Bar restoration site. This program has been running for seventeen years and this year was our largest one yet! The Expedition season runs from early October to Mid-November, when we can expect to see Spring and Fall run Chinook, with trips going out five days a week. This year SYRCL educators taught, investigated alongside, and spotted salmon on the Yuba with more than 2,000 students, teachers, chaperones and community members.
This year marks the 40th anniversary of the South Yuba River Citizens League (SYRCL). To build on our legacy of safeguarding the Yuba Watershed, we must look to the next 40 years to ensure a new generation will care about our rivers, forests, and meadows and stand up to new threats when arise.
SYRCL is preparing for the future by investing in our outreach and education programs, especially in our new Education Department. We are absolutely committed to inspiring the next generation of watershed stewards and advocates.
You can be part of this effort by making a special gift to our Education & Outreach Fund.
