THE MISSION OF THE BREWSTER KING SALMON DERBY
The Mission of the Salmon Derby is to provide a family-oriented fishing event.
The goals of the funds created from the Derby are to promote the Sponsors, administrative and promotion costs, prizes, and payouts during the Derby. We offer Student Scholarships to students pursuing Fish rehabilitation and environmental studies. We contribute and support activities that involve youth in the outdoors like fishing derbies. We always support non-profits in our community.
Funds whether income of principal or acquired by gift or contribution shall be devoted to said purposes.

The Brewster King Salmon Derby
The Brewster Salmon Derby wants to welcome you once again to Brewster and say thank you for choosing to be a part of our Annual Brewster King Salmon Derby. Always the 1st full weekend in August. We know you enjoy the great fishing we have here in the “Brewster Pool” where the Columbia and Okanogan Rivers meet and the Salmon bunch up before going upriver to spawn. The Salmon run sounds like it will be as good or better than last year providing plenty of opportunities to catch the winning fish. We will be giving away lots of cash and prizes as always! We could not put on this Derby without the continuing support of all our Sponsors, who are listed on our Sponsor’s Page and have ads here on the pages. Click on their name and it will take you to their website or FaceBook page. WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR NEW SPONSORS
