Spawner Salmon Surveys. We guide teams of senior secondary students on weekly spawner salmon surveys in the fall of each year. Each team completes one survey a week for seven weeks starting in mid-October. The students are members of the Environmental Protection Network at five local senior secondary schools.
Student representatives are invited to present survey findings to a regular West Vancouver Council meeting. Around 500 students have participated in this program since its inception in 2007.
Our program is endorsed by West Vancouver’s Board of School Trustees and Mayor and Council. Fisheries and Oceans Canada describes it as a unique partnership, bringing together good stewardship practices and education.
