At Sundown on July 15, 2006 the project received a skin and lights and the installation of the Chum Salmon Lantern graced the beach by the mouth of Roberts Creek for one evening; and then mysteriously disappeared.

Saturday, July 15, 2006, an amazing architectural structure created from bamboo and duct tape, about 50 feet long and ten feet tall, was carried by friends of the Chum Salmon to it's habitat at the Roberts Creek pier.
