This grant is for the purpose of supporting an intensive, week-long summer camp dedicated to fisheries science, ecology, and habitat conservation in Alaska’s Bristol Bay area. Offered along the Nushagak River, this program aims to equip 10-12 young adults, aged 15-22, with comprehensive knowledge in these fields. Beyond foundational scientific understanding, participants will gain practical skills in fly-fishing techniques and professional sport-fish guiding. A key component of the curriculum involves integrating traditional knowledge, ensuring that future guides can offer culturally rich and informed experiences. This initiative seeks to foster the next generation of environmentally conscious and skilled fisheries professionals and guides in Alaska.
