Photographs taken by Patricia Gaspar, at the "Salmon Leave Home festival, May 2 2010 at Hoy Creek. The department of Fisheries and Oceans, run across British Columbia eighteen hatcheries, among them, Hoy/Scott Watershed Society in Coquitlam, where members of the public were invited to help to release ten thousand Coho salmon smolts from the hatchery into Hoy Creek. Volunteers, and children, were working in a very rainy day, for four hours, to transfer the fish from the rearing pond to the rain-swollen creek.
That festival was held, In an effort to raise public awareness about the miracle of the salmon life cycle and the importance of protecting our salmon in every way possible. Raised from the egg stage at the hatchery, these Coho will make their way along a series of creeks and rivers, including the mighty Fraser, ending up in the Pacific Ocean.

The Evergreen Cultural Centre is a theatre and music venue in Coquitlam, British Columbia, opened in October 1996 by former Coquitlam Mayor Lou Sekora. The design team was headed by Thom Weeks of Architectura, and the contract was completed by Proscenium Architecture.
The Centre features a 264-seat black box theatre (with configurable seating from stadium to flat floor), a fully equipped rehearsal hall, three art studios, and a 1,500-square-foot (140 m2) art gallery with adjoining gallery shop. The Centre is owned by the City of Coquitlam, and is located in Coquitlam's Town Centre Park, overlooking Lafarge Lake.
Programming at the Evergreen Cultural Centre includes live theatre, comedy, musical concerts, visual arts workshops, festivals, and more. The facility serves as the home theatre for the Stage 43 Theatrical Society, and is also part of the Arts Club Theatre Company circuit that brings popular plays to the venue. The Centre is the home venue for the Pacific Symphonic Wind Ensemble and the Coastal Sound Music Academy. The Water's Edge Festival, a 25 hour continuous music festival, is held at the Centre and on the shores of neighbouring Lafarge Lake.
Also housed in the complex is the Coquitlam Innovation Centre, the Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce, and the Tourist Information Centre. A second 750-seat auditorium has been planned, but has yet to be funded.

The Hoy Creek Hatchery is a volunteer operated Salmon Hatchery located along Hoy Creek in the Town Center area of Coquitlam, BC. Our Hatchery is in an urban setting located between many high density residential buildings. A linear park was designed to run along the northern half of Hoy Creek. It is located on the former Brewer property, who ran a small farm and hatchery.
The Hoy Creek salmon hatchery is designed to enhance the salmon stocks within Hoy/Scott creek watershed. To do this we use returning salmon to collect eggs and sperm. After the eggs hatch, the salmon are raised in a controlled setting, to improve their chance of survival. The salmon are then released, dependant on species, at different times of the year.
