Thank you!
The Wenatchee River Salmon Festival is celebrating its 20th year of salmon
“edu-tainment.” As always, our target audience for the first two days of this award-winning natural resource education event are third and fourth graders from area schools. We hope your school will choose to participate in this year’s “Fins, Feathers and Family Fun” festival.
We are trying to reach all teachers through this website and email. Would you please review your email list to be sure all your teachers have been included.
Please forward this information to all new teachers coming on board. If you are retiring or leaving your assigned grade then it is very important that you inform us and let us know who your replacement is.
Please remember that each school selects one grade only to attend the festival to avoid having students experience the event more than once.
On-line registration will still be available for alumni teachers only. In order to better accommodate your Salmon Festival preparation, on-line registration will be available here beginning July 5th.
If you register July 5 through July 30, you will receive a schedule by August 9. If you register from July 31 through August 25 you will receive a schedule by Sept 7.
All scheduling is closed after August 25th.
You will receive your schedule via email, so please fill out the registration form completely by providing both your school and summer email addresses.
New teachers are required to attend a teacher workshop before they can attend school days with their classes.
When: August 25th (Wednesday) from 10:30 AM – 12:00 AM
Where: Wenatchee Library Auditorium located in the basement. The library is located next to the Chelan County Courthouse at 310 Douglas Street.
During the workshop, new teachers receive an orientation to the Salmon Festival, a curriculum, cool posters, and the opportunity to sign-up for scheduled activities.
Please call Susan or Lynann if you have any questions.
