Clarke County Students Making a Difference in their Watershed!
Clarke County students are making a difference in our watershed! Local channel WVDM covered the story here.
Native brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) juveniles were released into Spout Run, a stream cold, oxygen-rich, and pebbly enough to allow these trout to survive. These trout were raised from eggs by Clarke County high school students.
