Fish Hatchery visit

When is the last time ya'll visited the State Fish Hatchery in Fountain Green? My grandfather, Leland Despain retired from the Fish and Game, working at the old fish hatchery. I remember so much fun going with him to feed the fish and transport them to various ponds and lakes around Sanpete. The most enjoyable deliveries were to Hamburger Pond on top of Maple Canyon. Too bad but this high mountain pond is now gone. While I was there John and Camille Field with some of their grand kids were also there. What a great learning experience to see how wildlife and fish are managed for our enjoyment. Well done to all the hard workers at the Fountain Green Fish Hatchery!
