FAIRBANKS WILD SALMON DAY

Wild Salmon Day Fairbanks - August 14
2 pm to 5 pm at Tanana Lakes Recreation Area
Join us for Fairbanks' 3rd Wild Salmon Day Celebration at the Tanana Lakes Recreation Pavilion at the end of South Cushman. This is a free, family-friendly community picnic where we talk salmon, eat salmon, and commit to protecting salmon. We'll have live music, singing, drumming, storytelling, tables and activities to join in from your local community organizations. And of course, we'll have free salmon and food!
**We are requiring masks for this event. The BA 5 variant is not nice, and we must keep each other safe. Masks on when you're not eating and drinking. Otherwise, you know the drill.**
Thanks to our partners Tanana Valley Watershed Association, Fairbanks Climate Action Coalition, Native Movement, Northern Center, and the Alaska Native Education Department for joining and helping us put on this event!
LIVE MUSIC!
We'll be joined by drumming group Dene Eslaanh, and performers Jake Chavez, and Rachel DeTemple and Jon Oestreich from Fireweed Fiddle!
