About THE SERPENTINE ENHANCEMENT SOCIETY
The Tynehead Hatchery is operated by the Serpentine Enhancement Society, a non-profit volunteer society in partnership with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and Metro Vancouver Regional District.
Education is an important part of our mandate, and the hatchery is involved with students of all levels in Surrey Schools.
The Society was formed in 1985 and built the hatchery in 1987. Members of the society participate in a variety of activities centering around the rearing of young salmon and protecting the Serpentine watershed.
Th hatchery raises four different species of salmon; Chinook, Chum, Coho and lately Steelhead. The work of the volunteers has been very successful in that a great number of spawners of all four species are returning every fall.
