Celebrate our local watershed and the salmon returning to Bear Creek at the 15th Annual Bear Creek Salmon Festival, Saturday, October 5, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at North Mountain Park. This event is a fun-filled day of hands-on activities for the whole family. Learn all about wildlife habitat and how we can all become better stewards of our watershed.

Local experts will be on-hand with outdoor activities for all ages, including crafts, games, spin-casting, the Salmon Story Tent, a demonstration of Native American salmon cooking, the Salmon Spiral Labyrinth and more. Admission is free! Enjoy a lineup of outdoor musical entertainment or grab a delicious lunch from the food truck. (Please help us make this a Zero Waste event by bringing a reusable water bottle or cup.)
