900 Vanderhoof students to help release sturgeon into Nechako

The Nechako White Sturgeon Conservation Centre is celebrating its 10th anniversary by releasing Sturgeon.

Two-year-old Nechako White Sturgeon will be released into the Nechako River with the help of 900 Vanderhoof area students, as well as the mayor of Vanderhoof and other dignitaries.

Each student will get to release their own salmon fry, and as a group send 63 juvenile Nechako white sturgeon into the river.

The release will happen on Friday, June 7th at Riverside Park in Vanderhoof.
