SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7, 2017 3 B 2017 Salmon Run to host kick-off meeting The Salmon Run, a 5K run and 3K walk, will be held again this year on Saturday, Aug. 26. Organizers are looking for interested persons and volun- teers to assist with this effort. A kick-off meeting will be held Thursday, June 8, from 5:30 to 7 p.m., at the Siuslaw Watershed Council conference room, 10868 East Mapleton Rd., in Mapleton. This run commemorates Shiloh Forest Sundstrom (1981-2015), a PhD candidate in Geography at Oregon State University, cattle manager at Rock Creek Ranch in Deadwood, a Program Director at the Siuslaw Institute and a vocal advocate for conservation solutions in the Siuslaw watershed and abroad. While working for SWC 11 years ago, Sundstrom created The Siuslaw Salmon Run as a fun and fundraising event. With the encouragement of his family, SWC revived the run last year in his honor as The Salmon Run/Walk and Celebration. Last year, there were 74 par- ticipants. The goal for 2017 is to have more than 100 entrants. Come help plan this year’s event or call 541-268-3044 for more information.

Members who are interested in learning how to groom and saddle their horses as a part of the experience are welcome to come 30 minutes before each ride. C&M Stables will pro- vide members with the tools necessary and offer instruction on how it is done. More information about the fall session will be available in August.

MEET Copper Copper is a very pretty, female, Australian Shepherd mix. She is 7 yrs old and was recently surrendered to the shelter by her owner because this dog needs a more active lifestyle than the former owner could provide. She needs a family who can give her daily exercise to help her shed a couple of excess pounds. This sweet girl is with a foster family, so if you want to meet her, please call the shelter for an appointment.
