Did you know?
Ann Wolford River Edge Park is named in honor of Ann Wolford for her accomplishments and foresight as the Chair of Skagit County Parks and Recreation Commission from 1964 to 1970. The park sits on a 33-acre piece of land just north of what locals call Nichols Bar. It's a place popular with fishermen for its easy river access.
In 2011, Skagit County received a Salmon Recovery Funding Board grant to complete a restoration project within the park to benefit salmon habitat. Since then we've conducted projects and plantings to help remove non-native invasive plant species and encourage native self-sustaining growth! We want everyone (including fishermen) to be able to keep enjoying the natural abundance of the Skagit River.
Join us in the continuation of this project and show Ann Wolford Park a little love!

Mission Statement
Our mission is to build partnerships that educate and engage the community in habitat restoration and watershed stewardship in order to enhance slamonid populations
Description
The Skagit Fisheries Enhancement Group (SFEG) is a private, non-profit organization working to protect and enhance salmon resources in the Skagit and Samish River watersheds. Through the hard work of our volunteers we have been recognized as a local leader in salmon restoration. Our goals are achieved through education, restoration and community involvement. As a non-governmental organization, cooperation is enhanced with local landowners, conservation groups, government agencies and tribes. We are one of 12 regional fisheries enhancement groups in Washington state that are part of a coordinated effort to educate and involve the public in salmon enhancement activities across the state at the community level.
