Everyone left with a smile….
Thanks to the intrepid friends and fellow volunteers from the Trout Unlimited Hemingway Chapter, as well as the staff of the Hayspur Fish Hatchery, 60 students from Alturas School helped us mark our 14th year of youth education in the Wood River Valley yesterday. Students spent the day learning about our Wood River Valley ecosystem, the IDFG hatchery program, macroinvertebrates, and, most importantly, the joy of landing fish! For some students, this may be their only time out on the water, while for others, it may complement a passion they share with their family. Either way, it is always a day that brings students together, pushes their comfort zones, and expands their knowledge of the outdoor resources our region offers. We look forward to fishing with students again next year and expanding their education from the classroom to the outdoors!
Fish On!
