SUMMARY:Salmon Feast
DESCRIPTION:Join our Celebration and Honour the Sacredness of the River\n\n\n\nIt is one of the goals of the Syilx Okanagan Nation to carry on the work of the people’s ancestors and Elders who taught the importance of preserving and revitalizing the traditions\, customs\, and language of the Syilx people. The Salmon Feast honours the sacredness of the river at sx̌ʷəx̌ʷnitkʷ (Okanagan Falls)\, which is a culturally significant site for the Syilx Okanagan People\, and an important traditional fishing camp\, gathering place and trading site. The Salmon Feast is a three-day event that involves multiple activities including: ceremonies\, a canoe paddle\, and on Sunday a salmon feast and ceremony for snx̌aʔiwləm (to honour the sacredness of the river). \n\n\n\nThe Annual  Salmon Feast is an essential practice in the continued organized efforts of the Okanagan Nation Alliance and member communities to raise the importance of the habitat protection and rehabilitation of local ecosystems\, watersheds\, and renew connections and relationships between all residents of the Region with water and fish. It is vitally important that we honour the salmon so they will always come back to feed the people.

SUMMARY:Hatchery Tours
DESCRIPTION:The kł cp̓əlk̓ stim̓ Hatchery is a testament to the perseverance of the Syilx Okanagan People to realize their dream of restoring the n’titxw (Chief Salmon) – one of our Four Food Chiefs – to their original habitat and rightful place in our territory. This hatchery represents a critical stage of our Nation’s restoration initiative and is part of a long‐term program to restore the historical range of Sockeye in the upper Okanagan watershed\, Okanagan Lake\, and Skaha Lake systems\, and a region of the Columbia River Basin. \n\n\n\nOpened in 2014\, our 25\,000 square foot hatchery has the capacity to rear 8 million eggs. It is currently equipped to handle all fish culture aspects required for 5 million eggs from brood stock management until fry release. Sizing the facility for 8 million eggs allows for flexibility in the future\, or to allow for changes in the fish culture activities. This facility is significant for the program\, as it poses the least risk for the fish population\, allows for maximum egg-to-fry survival\, and permits monitoring of the interaction between Sockeye and Kokanee. \n\n\n\nkł cp̓əlk̓ stim̓ Hatchery Tours are offered all year long by appointment. Tours last about an 1 hour and are hands on\, with opportunity for questions.

SUMMARY:Broodstock Tours
DESCRIPTION:As part of the kł cp̓əlk̓ stim̓ initiative\, ONA has been beach seining and collecting eggs and milt from adult Sockeye in the Okanagan River for rearing and release into Skaha Lake. Since 2004\, ONA has stocked Skaha and Osyoyoos Lake with hatchery-reared fry and monitored their growth\, survival\, and impacts on the Skaha Lake food-web and effects on kokanee populations.  Results so far have been very promising; the program has been a success story.  Beginning in 2014\, ONA has been rearing the fry in the new kł cp̓əlk̓ stim̓ Hatchery. \n\n\n\nAs part of our dedication to promoting education and awareness around Okanagan sockeye and other fish species in the region\, ONA provides free school tours to classes from K-12 of the broodstock site and activities. Tours usually take place over the first two weeks of October.
