The False Creek Watershed Society is hosting the Salmon Celebration as part of BC Rivers Day on Spetember 28th. The Salmon Celebration BC Rivers Day The event is set to take place from 12:00 - 4:30pm at Vanier Park and promises to great fun, and educational too.There is even a parade at 1:00pm.

I haven't been to one of these events for a few years, but the last one we went to was great. There will be "Entertainment, Crafts, Food, Storytelling, Environmental Fair, Local Musicians, Wooden Boat Building, Stilt Walking, Exhibits and First Nations Participation."

You can read all about The Salmon Celebration and all the other events the Society puts on their website. It is always good for us city dwellers to realize what was here before they paved this paradise.
