Description

Big South Fork NRRA is encouraging school-age children to learn to fish with a park ranger.

A park ranger will introduce school-age children to the fundamentals of fishing, help identify some native fish of the area, and why a river ecosystem is so important. At the end of the program, youth will receive a fishing pole, tackle box, and the official Junior Ranger Angler Badge. Fishing items are limited to first-time participants only.

This program is made possible by a Junior Ranger Angler grant from the National Park Foundation.
