Organiser's description
Patagonia is excited to announce the 30TH Annual Salmon Run, to be held November 15, 2026.
This year, proceeds will support Santa Barbara Channelkeeper, a local environmental nonprofit dedicated to protecting and restoring the Santa Barbara Channel and its watersheds. For over 25 years, Channelkeeper has worked to ensure clean water, healthy habitats, and thriving communities from Point Conception to the Ventura River, from the Santa Ynez Mountains to the Northern Channel Islands. Through science-based advocacy, education, fieldwork, enforcement, and community engagement, Channelkeeper defends our communitys right to clean water and informs, inspires, and empowers people to speak and act for our waterways.
Channelkeeper leads a range of impactful programs, including water quality monitoring, marine protected area stewardship, pollution prevention, and watershed advocacy initiatives. Through hands-on volunteer programs, public outreach efforts, and collaborative policy solutions, Channelkeeper engages the community as active stewards of our coast and waterways.
Channelkeepers work is actively addressing some of our regions most pressing environmental challenges. Channelkeeper has taken a lead role in protecting the region from the impacts of offshore oil drilling through strategic advocacy and legal action, including challenging the restart of Sables oil development operations along the Gaviota Coast. Channelkeeper is also working to safeguard public trust resources in the Ventura River watershed, advancing solutions that protect water flows for the benefit of wildlife and our communities. Learn how to get involved and support their work by visiting www.sbck.org https://www.sbck.org.
Additionally, we want the Salmon Run to be a Zero-Waste-Event to mitigate sending anything to the waste stream that doesn't have to. We will send out details on how to prepare for this closer to the day of the race, but plan to bring your own water bottle and coffee mug.
As a reminder, this race tends to fill up quick and has limited sign up space!
