VISITOR CENTER - IN 2018, DIPAC OFFERED FREE ADMISSIONS AND EDUCATIONAL TOURS TO OVER 4,000 STUDENTS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS. NOT ONLY DO WE OFFER FREE ADMISSIONS AND TOURS, BUT DIPAC PROVIDES A FREE SERVICE TO THE JUNEAU SCHOOL DISTRICT BY DEVELOPING AND CARRYING OUT TWO SPECIFIC PROGRAMS (ONE IN THE FALL, ONE IN THE SPRING) THAT MEET DISTRICT REQUIREMENTS FOR VARIOUS AGE LEVEL LEARNING. IN THE FALL PROGRAM, PRE-K THROUGH FIFTH GRADE STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT SALMON ANATOMY, ECOLOGY OF SALMON ENVIRONMENTS, AND LIFE CYCLE. SECOND GRADE STUDENTS, IN THE SPRING, HAVE A SPECIALIZED PROGRAM ON MOLLUSKS (THE LARGEST PHYLUM IN THE OCEAN), BUT BEFORE THE MOLLUSK LESSON BEGINS, THEY ARE GIVEN A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE HATCHERY OPERATIONS AND MISSION. OVER THE COURSE OF THE SUMMER, WE WELCOMED APPROXIMATELY 77,000 GUESTS THROUGH OUR DOORS TO EXPLAIN THE IMPORTANCE OF SALMON AND HOW THE HATCHERY SUPPORTS THIS SUSTAINABLE FISHERY. GUESTS ARE OFFERED A COMPLEMENTARY COMMENTARY UPON PAYMENT OF AN ADMISSIONS FEE AND A SEASONAL GUIDE LEADS THEM AROUND THE KEY PLACES OF THE FACILITY. FOR THOSE WHO LIKE TO LEARN ON THEIR OWN, THERE ARE EDUCATIONAL SIGNS AND EXHIBITS AS WELL AS A SLIDESHOW PROVIDING ALL THE BASIC HATCHERY INFORMATION.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2017 – Jun 30, 2018Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$425KHatchery Operations and Fisheries Enhancement
