Gone Fishin' with the Redband Rally

SPOKANE, Wash. - Thank you for your continued support of the Redband Rally presented by the City of Spokane. Originally launched in 2017, the campaign has raised over $40,000—including $15,000 in 2021—to support local and regional projects with the goal of preserving and improving Redband habitat in the Spokane River.

You can help further our mission with a donation through our partners at the Innovia Foundation, or by purchasing official Redband Rally merchandise. If you know of a project that needs grant funding, please submit a request HERE.

California Creek Tree Planting

In partnership with Spokane Falls Trout Unlimited (SFTU), new trees were planted along California Creek, just south of Spokane. California Creek is vital to the Hangman Creek watershed and supplies fresh, clean, cold water into the entire system. New trees provide shade canopy during the hot summer months to keep water temperatures at a healthy level.

Spokane Tribal Fishing Derby

The Redband Rally Campaign committed $1,500 to become a supporting sponsor of the Spokane Tribal Fishing Derby for the next three years (2021-2023). In addition, the Spokane Indians Baseball Club donated a variety of hats, t-shirts, baseballs, and ticket vouchers for fishing derby prizes. The goal of the derby is to promote the tradition of fishing and encourage youth to enjoy this outdoor activity.

No-Li Beer Bats

In a truly unique partnership with No-Li Brewhouse, the Indians and No-Li debuted the first ever 'Redband Rally Beer Bats' last summer at Avista Stadium. In addition, a Redband Rally Beer Bat party was held at No-Li Brewhouse and we were able to raise $2,500 in one evening. Thank you to No-Li Brewhouse for helping to make this idea a reality. Be on the lookout for new beer bat designs during the 2022 season!

Angler's Coffee

The Redband Rally Campaign was recognized by Angler’s Coffee, a Pacific Northwest based coffee company, as their 4th Quarter Conservation Alliance Partner. Each quarter Angler’s identifies a Conservation Alliance Partner to feature with a blog post on their website and donate a portion of their quarterly sales towards. Thank you Angler’s Coffee for your support!

Be a Team Player

This year RIBBY the Redband Trout and the Redband Rally Campaign were honored to be a part of a City of Spokane “Be a Team Player” initiative aimed to clean up the Spokane River and promote safe and sustainable use of its waters. This initiative came to life as a television commercial that will air in late spring. Thanks to the City of Spokane and Rogue Heart Media for letting us be a part of this fun project!
