Algonquin Park Research Opportunity - Last minute cancellations have made space available for several individuals to join fisheries scientists on Lake Opeongo in Algonquin Park to net spawning Lake Trout on the nights of Friday, October 17 (tomorrow) and Wednesday, October 22, 2014. Join the Harkness Laboratory of Fisheries Research scientists as they conduct mark-recapture field work on Algonquin Park’s largest lake. Through this very exclusive Experience Algonquin Workshop, limited to just 4 participants each night, discover the tools and techniques necessary to conduct this long-term fisheries research study. As a workshop participant, you will experience the handling and release of wild Lake Trout and also be onboard to observe biological sampling by research staff. This “on the water” workshop offers one of the finest opportunities to observe actual Algonquin Park research in action. Overnight accommodation and meals are provided at the Harkness Laboratory of Fisheries Research in Algonquin Park. For complete details and cost see algonquinpark.on.ca/visit/programs/experience-algonquin-workshops.php Immediate registration for this workshop is required. Space is limited. Contact Elva at 613 637-2828 ext 236 to register (leave a message if necessary). All workshop proceeds support the charitable work of The Friends of Algonquin Park and the scientific efforts of the Harkness Laboratory of Fisheries Research.
