FISHING VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

The Division of Wildlife Resources is looking for volunteers to teach 6- to 13-year-olds about fish, the places fish live and how to catch them.

Adult volunteers are needed in communities stretching from Logan to Washington City. The following communities are still looking for

volunteers to help in their clubs: Logan, Ogden, Roy, Clinton, Syracuse, Clearfield, Kaysville, Bountiful, Murray, Riverton, South Jordan, Highland Glen, Orem, Spanish Fork, Saratoga Springs, Payson, Nephi and Washington City.

Volunteer training takes only a single evening to complete. Training takes place between now and mid-April.

Those interested can e-mail Chris Penne at chrispenne@utah.gov.

The clubs meet at the fishing pond in their community for six to eight weeks. The children spend the first 30 minutes of each two-hour class learning about fish, how to catch them and about fish habitat, and then head for the pond and fish.
