Don’t let the name fool you! Although we call this series “teleconferences,” in-person attendance is available and encouraged. See dates and unique meeting locations below if not hosted at the AITRC office.
These sessions focus on hearing from people who know the salmon best, with boots on the ground and nets in the water, sharing observations about salmon runs, river conditions, and other factors impacting this vital resource. Join us to share your observations, your knowledge, hear updates from fisheries managers, and contribute to the conversation surrounding Copper River salmon.
Participants are welcome to join by Zoom or attend in person. Join the conversation, ask questions, and help build a shared understanding of what is happening on the river each week!
