  Community Involvement at Lilliwaup

Here are a few examples of how Lilliwaup provides a venue for hands-on education and community involvement and a source of data and information about salmon biology, fisheries, and ecology.

  • LLTK has hosted many elected officials at its Hood Canal facilities, including Congressman Norm Dicks; former U.S. Senator Slade Gorton; Washington State senators Tim Sheldon, Bob Oke, and Ken Jacobsen; and all the county commissioners from Jefferson and Mason counties.

  • We have hosted hundreds of Hood Canal School District students and educators, and representatives from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, the South Sound Farm Forestry Association, and Bainbridge Island Fly Fishers.

  • Facility manager Rick Endicott serves on the Water Resource Inventory Area 14 Salmon Recovery Funding Board project approval committee and participates in the Technical Work Groups, which coordinate the conservancy site programs with the state and Tribal co-managers. Rick also serves on the board of directors of the Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group, and hosts the youth who participate in their "Salmon Camp" each summer.
