Terry Wiest our derby chair has this year's event looking
pretty good. We're really excited about the 7th Annual SKC
PSA Salmon Derby to benefit Special Needs Kids and Washington
CCA to be held on Saturday, August 2. The stars must be
aligning and looking down upon us as with all the closures
this year, our event happens to fall within all the openings!
Commencement Bay and the mouth of the Puyallup will be open
as will the Elliot Bay Inner Fishery! For this reason we've
added a third weigh in station so you wont have to travel
as far to get those salmon weighed in. This year's weigh
in stations will be the Dock Street Marina in Tacoma, Seacrest
Marina in Elliot Bay, and the Des Moines Marina. The prize
ceremony and BBQ will be held at Des Moines.
Being part of the Northwest Salmon Series, you'll have
a chance to win a new boat just by purchasing a ticket to
our event. We'll also have a kid's derby section with first
prize being a trip to Wild Waves for the winner plus a few
of his or her friends. The Derby first place will once again
be a $3,000 check
Donations are coming in but we're still looking for sponsors.
Look for posters soon and for your convenience we'll once
again offer derby tickets on-line. You may also purchase
tickets on-line even if you don't plan to fish the Derby,
just to get another chance at that fantastic boat.
