Sir Winston Churchill Volunteers

Dead Salmon.Once again this fall, Students of Sir Winston Churchill, under the direction of teachers, Alex Komarniski and, are sure to be seen at the Queenston Road channel. They will be assisting the salmon make their journey up Red Hill creek, returning home to spawn. Without help, the salmon are unable to complete their journey due to problems with the channel design.

In past years, these students have come equipped with nets, hip waders, carrying baskets, and their determination to rescue as many salmon as possible.

This is an annual event, and as one class graduates, another steps up to carry on this this very worthwhile project. Once the students have seen their first salmon struggling to get through this man-made death trap, their only agenda is to help.
