The Friends of Camp-Hope Slough and the Friends of Bell Slough in partnership with Cheam and Skwah of the Pelolxw Tribes and Watershed Watch Salmon Society are hosting this evening to share updates and dive into conversations about the future of these important waterways.
This community event will focus on the Hope, Camp and Bell Sloughs and many of the waterways that flow into and connect to them. Stewarded by Sto:lo communities, these waterways have been important transportation routes and sources of food for many generations before us. With the coming together of our communities we can take steps to restore and revitalize these waterways for many for generations to come. It’s also been one-year since the atmospheric rivers moved through our community and we want to take stock of the significance of that event, what it meant to you and how we can be better prepared for extremes by making our waterways resilient to mass water fluctuations.
