adding that a tax on fi shing
licenses and permits goes to a
restoration and enhancement
fund that helps restore streams
and plant trees.
“Fishermen want to make
sure there is still plenty of
fi sh out there in the ocean, so
they do everything they can
to make sure that the fi sh are
sustainable,” Fitzpatrick said.
Christa Svensson, with
Bornstein Seafoods in Asto-
ria, coordinates domestic and
international sales so that fi sh
can be made into fi llets or
other forms and shipped to
different locations.
Some students raised their
hands when Svensson asked if
anyone had family members
who work in fi shing or plants.
“It’s exciting to see that we
still have a lot of fi shing fam-
ilies in the area,” Svensson
said. “It’s thousands of peo-
ple in Astoria, Seaside, Gear-
hart and Cannon Beach that
are involved in helping bring
seafood to your tables.”
The speakers emphasized
that women can be fi shers,
too. Svensson said she started
going fi shing in grade school
with her father.
“Fishing is a choice,” Fitz-
patrick said. “It’s with joy that
they do this job.”

SEASIDE
—
Sea-
side Heights Elementary
fi fth-graders will learn about
local and sustainable fi sher-
ies through a new “boat-to-
school” culinary program.
Throughout the year, the
students will raise salmon,
prepare seafood meals at a
culinary event, take a fi eld
trip to a hatchery and receive
take-home dinner kits to cook
with their families. They will
learn about salmon, ground
fi sh, crab, albacore and
pink shrimp through activ-
ity books, lesson plans and
hands-on activities.
The Oregon Albacore
Commission was awarded a
$15,411 Farm to School grant
from the state Department of
Education to promote Ore-
gon seafood with fi fth-grade
classes in the Seaside School
District.
“This is our pilot school,”
said Oregon Salmon Com-
mission Executive Director
Nancy Fitzpatrick. “We’ll see

to students last week about
