The Port Moody Ecological Society is in urgent need of buckets for this year's Fingerling Festival and is asking the community to help.

Donations of small plastic buckets with handles up to half gallon are needed for distribution of 40,000 young salmon to the kids who help release them into Noons Creek each May. The society anticipates 4,000 children and adults will attend this year's event, to be held May 7. Buckets that previously held dairy products are an ideal size.

Clean buckets can be dropped off to volunteers at the hatchery every morning and will be re-used by the hatchery throughout the year.
