Last weekend, I visited Adams River for the Salute to the Sockeye Festival, celebrating the return of the Sockeye Salmon to one of B.C.’s most remarkable natural landscapes.
The festival brings visitors, families and communities together to witness this incredible natural event, with educational displays, interpretive tours, Indigenous cultural experiences and activities for all ages. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about the salmon’s journey and the important role they play in our ecosystems.
Thank you to the Adams River Salmon Society, the Skwlax Little Shuswap Lake Band, Secwépemc communities and the many volunteers who make this festival possible and help protect B.C.’s natural heritage for future generations.
