FESTIVAL
MISSION
The
mission of the Festival is to help people who live and work in
the Stillaguamish Watershed and surrounding regions understand
how their actions can help make their environment cleaner for
people, fish, and wildlife.
The
Tribe recorded at least 8000 attendees at the 2007 Festival of
the River. Over 28 states were represented, but the majority of
festival-goers were from northern Snohomish County.

The
Stillaguamish Festival of the River is a fun way to celebrate
summer and the Pacific Northwest environment. Regional citizens
and visitors share their experiences and learn from others about
water quality, salmon habitat, and the watershed. And if you don't
know what a watershed is, we'll teach you!
This
year we feature a giant storytelling turtle tent, interpretive
salmon habitat tours, arts and craft vendors, a scrumptious salmon
steak and buffalo burger barbecue prepared by the Stillaguamish
Tribe, and a variety of live music.
Besides
great music, food, and crafts, the Festival offers wild bird presentations
featuring eagles, hawks, and owls; games and craft activities
for children; crosscut saw competitions, and so much more.
