Stocking the pond at Dry Bridge Park

Jim Vashro, a volunteer, helps load Arlee Rainbow Trout into buckets for the Hedges Elementary 4th graders on Thursday afternoon, April 10, at Dry Bridge Park in Kalispell. Approximately 2000 fish were released into the pond from three hatcheries: the Creston National Fish Hatchery, the Murray Springs Trout Hatchery in Eureka, and the Jocko River Trout Hatchery in Arlee.
