Salish Sea Wild Gets Two EMMY™ Nominations!

We’re thrilled to share that Salish Sea Wild, the SeaDoc Society’s original web series, has been nominated for two EMMY™ Awards by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences! The show is produced by Bob Friel and hosted by SeaDoc Society Science Director Joe Gaydos. 

SeaDoc has two Salish Sea Wild episodes nominated in the North West Chapter's Environment/Science - Long Form Content category!

Our small team's work has been nominated alongside the top television stations and filmmakers throughout Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Montana and Idaho.

"This is the first time we entered, so it was wild to hear that we received two nominations," said Friel. "The selection process is voted on by the top media professionals nationwide, and since we're competing against all the big city TV networks and PBS shows in the Northwest, it's already an honor that our handmade show was nominated."

The Emmy Award winners will be announced this June. 

Until then, thanks to all who have watched Salish Sea Wild and shared it with a friend, as well as all of the great researchers on both sides of the border who have helped us tell these stories. And last but not least, to all of the supporters who make our nonprofit work possible.
