"The Goldstream Volunteer Salmonid Enhancement Association was honoured for their achievements in providing salmonid hatchery support in creeks in Saanich. These volunteers oversee the egg to hatching, then provide coho and chum fry in different life-cycles to local creeks and to the Salmonids in the Classroom program. They have worked with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) on transplanting fish carcasses from one watershed to another - the first permitted project in Canada. The hatchery runs 6 days per week year round powered by volunteers." ~ District of Saanich (www.saanich.ca)
