What a way to end the Trout in the Classroom year! Our last tank released their fish, got to cast with our volunteers, and have a great day outside!!

Another class missing their trout they previously released got to share out about their experience and everything they learned from this program.

Trout in the Classroom is a wonderful educational experience, but itโ€™s also an opportunity for kids to get outside, expand their learning, and fall in love with conservation.

Thank you to all of our volunteers, donors, and sponsors for allowing this program to thrive!!

152 trout released into the Gunnison River today with Grand River Academy!

Grand Valley Anglers and Colorado Trout Unlimited showed up to help out with the release. The students got to dig for bugs and see the wonderful aquatic Macroinvertebrates that help keep this river happy.

GVA loves supporting Trout in the Classroom and watching these future conversationalists show off their hard work!!
