Fish Frenzy!

Brian, Vicky, and I were delighted when a school of trout arrived at the DRBA office this week. Yes...Trout! Ok, so they were not real ones, but an assortment of paper trout colored and cut out by 4th grade students at Drewery Mason Elementary. These students are part of the Trout-in-the-Classroom Program sponsored by DRBA and Dr. David Jones, Orthodontist.
The notes were Thank You's from the students after their recent trout release at the Smith River. It was amazing to see all the students at the river as they sang to the fish.

We've come here to release you!

The students worked hard to raise the trout from eggs and released them into the Smith River for them to continue growing. We are happy that the students had such a good time and appreciate the kind notes. Below are a few of them.
