Sign Up For One Cowichan Updates

A big thank you to everyone who participated in the One Cowichan election survey. Back in May we commissioned a local poll through Insights West, but we also wanted to ask supporters and watchers directly what they thought.

When I retired in 2006 and moved to the Cowichan Valley I was looking forward to many years of relaxation and lots of fishing.  I have certainly had the opportunity to do a lot of fishing but sitting back with my feet up has not been part of my routine. 

For the past twelve Tuesdays I have been working with a small but dedicated group of volunteers monitoring and rescuing salmon fry in the tributaries of Cowichan Lake and in the side channels of the Cowichan River.  When we started in March the rivers were flowing well and salmon fry were hatching out of the gravel everywhere.
