There are many ways to support the Foundation and our work to champion projects that benefit fish, wildlife, and habitat. One way is to participate in any of the special events we hold each year. Enjoy a day of fishing, bid on a trip, partake in a feast or two, learn a bit more about what makes Oregon a special place! Regardless of "why", we look forward to seeing you at one of our special events this year -

Salmon Quest
Another great Quest event! Held Saturday, April 17th, 2010 118 anglers enjoyed decent weather but slow fishing. 34 fish were caught with the biggest fish award going to Craig Mostul for a 35 inch springer. The first place team was led by guide David Johnson - six fish caught for a total of 155.25 inches. After fishing; guides, anglers, and guests sat down for a tasty banquet dinner and benefit auction at the Embassy Suites Hotel (Airport). Almost $37,000 was raised to support Fish Camp and metro-area fish enhancement projects!
A hearty thank you to our event sponsors; Inter-fluve, Umpqua Bank, Kerr Pacific Corp., Steven's Marine, Mercury Marine, Toman's King Camp, Yakima Bait Company, Gordon King, and Lindsay Ball.
A very special thank you to our guides, boatmen, and anglers without whom we couldn't have Salmon Quest! For pictures from the event click here to visit Dave Schamp's Big Fish Images website or here for additional images courtesy of Tucker Photography.
