Provincial
Project:
Yellow
Fish Road - (PDF) -
Looking for a water-related service project
for the spring? Consider taking part in Trout
Unlimited Canada’s Yellow Fish Road.
This project involves learning about protecting
storm drains and how what goes in them affects
local bodies of water. Units use stencils to
paint yellow fish near storm drains and distribute
door hangers to explain that the yellow fish
are there to remind them that anything that
flows down the storm drain ends up polluting
local water bodies. This is an educational
and fun project that units of all ages can
enjoy. |
