Salmon Summit
Come Tell Your Story to
Congressional Leaders

Thursday April 1, 2010 10:00 AM
Fort Mason, San Francisco

A delegation of West Coast Congressional Representatives will attend the Salmon Summit on how California water management affects salmon fishing and jobs. They need to hear from everyone who cares.

Every salmon supporter should mark Thursday April 1st on his or her calendar. A congressional panel led by Congressmen George Miller and Mike Thompson will assemble in San Francisco to hear from fishery leaders and the public about the economic and human costs of the closed 2008 and 2009 fishing seasons.

This is the best opportunity in years for salmon fishermen and other supporters to join in a united statement that we support salmon, salmon fishing and the water and habitat needs that will allow salmon stocks to rebuild.

Please attend and help make a statement. Show our leaders that salmon are important. Let's stop the water grab.

The meeting starts at 10:00 AM at Fort Mason in San Francisco. Fort Mason is on the bay at Marina Blvd. and Buchanan Street. It ends at 1:00 PM when everyone is invited to a free seafood reception hosted by five of the top seafood restaurants in the Bay Area.
If you want to help salmon, this is your chance.

Log onto water4fish to register and fill out the card to let us know if you would like to speak in the public session.

Thank you!
