Today we want to introduce you to Mark Yost-our new Deputy Project Leader at the hatchery. Mark joined us mid-October and is fitting right in with the hatchery staff and volunteers. He is also learning a lot about Russell County and the surrounding area. Here's a little bio from Mark:

"I'm grateful to be working at the Wolf Creek National Fish Hatchery (NFH) with the amazing staff here. In my first three weeks I have been awestruck at the quantity and quality of work done each day by the Wolf Creek NFH staff and I hope I can start to pull my weight once I fully come up to speed. My last duty station was at the Klamath Falls National Fish Hatchery, where I served as the Hatchery Manager with an awesome team doing recovery work with listed Klamath Suckers. Prior to that, I worked in various roles as a manager, assistant manager, fish biologist, or biotech at the following hatcheries raising over 60 different listed and/or recreational species, including Uvalde NFH, the Northeast Fishery Center, the Los Ojos and Rock Lake Hatcheries for the State of New Mexico, Inks Dam NFH, Achii Hanyo Native Fish Rearing Facility, Willow Beach NFH, and several freshwater, brackish, and/or marine hatcheries associated with Humboldt State University for the State of California, where I received my BS in Fisheries Biology back in 2005. I am grateful for the amazing people I have been able to work with and learn from over the past 25 years of doing fish work and I am eager to gain more valuable experience and training from the staff in the Southeast Region. My wife, Gloria, my daughter, Daniella, age 15, and my son, Mark III, age 13, have been willing to move across the country several times over the years to support my passion and career in fish culture, for which I am also grateful. Thanks again for this wonderful opportunity and new adventure!"

Help us welcome Mark and his family to the Wolf Creek National Fish Hatchery and the community!
