Utah Trout Unlimited members, friends, and family
As a member of Trout Unlimited, you may know that one of our flagship programs is “Trout in the Classroom” This program introduces Utah students to fish husbandry, fish biology and aquatic conservation through the hands-on learning experience of raising trout from fertilized eggs in their own classrooms. The program is a partnership between the Utah DWR, various school districts, and Trout Unlimited. The program begins in January with the delivery of fertilized eggs to the classrooms and continues through May when the fish are released to approved DWR locations. The program, however, doesn’t work without dedicated TU volunteers who work with the teachers to assist them, as needed, with setting up their equipment, delivering the eggs, providing minimal instruction to the students about fish and fishing, troubleshooting any problems that arise along the way and assisting with releasing the fish. The time commitment is minimal, but the rewards in joy and fun are substantial. This is where you come in.
This year we have 64 participating teachers, of which 17 are new. We need volunteer liaisons for the schools identified below. Please volunteer to serve as a liaison for one or more of these schools / teachers. One liaison could easily serve multiple teachers at a single location.
