Video details work of Salmon Corps volunteers
Youths improve fish
habitat while
preparing for college
Louis Helton of the Warm
Springs Salmon Corps group re
cently narrated a video program of
the Salmon Corps that will be shown
at the grand opening of Matthew
Henson Ilarth Conservation Inhibi
tion Center, in Washington, D.C.
Among the guests at the grand
opening event will be Pres. George
W. Bush, who will screen the video
to learn more about the Salmon
Corps program. The video is about
five minutes long, and details the
work that the Salmon Corps mem
bers do on the reservation, through
the region, in addition to the work
the Farth Conservation Corps car
ries out on a national level.
Hellon provided narration, ex
plaining the kinds of projects that
Salmon Corps works on, and how
the program has been a help to him
self and other members. Through
Salmon Corps, young people receive
money for college, plus college cred
its in the area of natural resource
management.
They attend seminars on job ca
reers, and how to succeed at college.
The members also receive a minimal
stipend payment, to cover living ex
penses during the course of the
Salmon Corps program.
To complete the program, a per
son also has to have a high school
diploma or a GF,D. When necessary,
Salmon Corps provides guidance for
a person in acquiring a GED, said

in rangeland areas. The fencing is
designed to keep livestock away
from thc streams, so that vegetation
can grow up along thc banks.
This keeps thc water cool, creat
ing a healthier fish habitat. The 15
Salmon Corps members in Warm
Springs work hard, in difficult tcr-
nrain and in the heat of thc
afternoon sun, said

day through Friday, and
sometimes on weekends.
Thc Salmon Corps
workers have to complete
1,700 hours of work
within an 11-month pe
riod. Often, thc members
finish early, within nine
months. At thc comple
tion of thc program, thcy
have money for college
plus thc 17 credits.
The goal is to recruit
into Salmon Corps youths
who arc at-risk, Kalama
said. In a way, the mem
bers are working at restor
ing fish habitat, while also
working at restoring their
own lives, he said.
Thc best part of direct
ing the program, Kalama
said, "Is seeing thc crew
come together as a team,
and seeing the young
people have thc heart to
finish thc job."
Salmon Corps began in
Warm Springs seven years
ago.
Thc program is associ
ated with F.agle Corps,
which exists in communities on thc
Fast Coast.
Both groups are branches of
AmeriCorps, which provides some of
thc funding for Salmon Corps.
Other funding comes from the
Tribes, and from private businesses
and foundations.
