NATURE WALK: Coastal ecology summer camp participants spent a lot of time around local waterways with Powell River Salmon society education coordinator Chantal Dunning recently, searching for flora and fauna that exists in the aquatic environments.

At the August 23 qathet Regional District (qRD) board meeting, directors decided that a letter of support will be provided to Powell River Salmon Society for a grant application to BC Gaming.

The salmon society is hoping to receive funding for its educational coordinator position, which was funded for one year through the BC job creation program.

The salmon society’s goal is to make this position permanent.

At the August 2 qRD committee of the whole meeting, directors reviewed correspondence from the salmon society.
