After a month of release events saying goodbye to the fish raised in Salmon in School, we also said farewell to Sara Gabriel.

After three years as our Environmental Educator, teaching thousands of students and releasing thousands of fish, she's heading to grad school to continue her path as an educator.

We will miss her creativity and enthusiasm, as captured in these photos.

Best of luck to you Sara!
