One Salmon, One Life-Affirming Choice




It may not be important to some of the Congressional “R” people or to the man occupying the Oval Office, but to members of the Warrior Science Club at Wyandotte’s Wilson Middle School, it is obvious that we must preserve our waterways and our Great Lakes.

Perhaps it’s because they are Downriver Michigan young people and experience the rivers and lakes first hand or because they are fortunate and have an astute teacher, like Mr. Michael White, and a sponsor like the HuronValley Sportfishing Club.

Regardless, these young people are learning to make life-affirming choices for their environment, themselves and their future. And, that lesson is more valuable than all the gold in the world. 

Here's the story...

Wyandotte students help Huron River, one salmon at a time

“Members of the Warrior Science Club at Wyandotte’s Wilson Middle School tied their all-time high of releasing 177 Chinook salmon into the Huron River when the children made their annual visit on April 28.”

“This has become a tradition for the club for the last six years. The salmon are released and then make their journey upstream.”

“Mike White, a Wilson teacher and former Marine, has been teaching science in the community for 32 years and organizes the event.”
