At Graham Elementary School, the Trout Unlimited Trout in the Classroom project is an important part of our annual story. This year, on May 6, we celebrated year 15 of the project with a successful trout release project!
Teachers Julie Butcher, Misty Roach and Katie Setty welcomed tanks into their classrooms and raised approximately 300 trout to be ready for release into the Mad River.
On release day, GES staff, students and a handful of volunteers traveled to Lions Park in West Liberty to release the trout into Onion Creek. The fish from our project will help to propagate the trout population in the Mad River. Students learned to cast a fly fishing rod, released a fish into the creek and met with Ohio Department of Natural Resources Officer Ethan Simmons to learn about the Mad River ecosystem.
Thank you to everyone who made this year's trip a success!
We are excited for year 16!
