West Side Kids - Stock Gray Run

Spent a great Saturday up the mountain with some teachers from West Side Elementary - Mr. Conway, Mr. Sotolsky (thanks for the ride up) and Ms. Kobal and students from West Side Elementary along with members of St. Clair Tremont Club.  Thanks to the club - throughout the school year - the kids helped raised 271 trout in two fish tanks in one of the classrooms.  Tremont Club even provided lunch for the kids when they were done.  A special shoutout to the club - they have many different outdoor programs throughout the year for the kids - from a fishing derby to NRA Day which is coming up in June.  They are helping to train the next generation of anglers and hunters.

Which meant today was the long awaited day where they would all get to release them in a couple different sections of Gray Run. 

The kids and their parents got to spend some quality time together in the woods.
