SUMMARY:Little Sewickley Creek Trout Stocking
DESCRIPTION:Little Sewickley Creek Trout Stocking\nApril 8 • 4:30pm • Walker Park Shelter #3 \nCelebrate one of Sewickley’s longest running annual traditions: stocking trout in Little Sewickley Creek! Since the 1950’s\, we have been gathering to help Sewickley Valley Conservation Association stock high quality trout in our special waterway. \nPlease bring a clean\, 5-gallon bucket to Shelter #3 to help transport and release the little brown trout into the stream. We will place the trout in the bucket and then release them into Little Sewickley Creek\, so we need to make sure we provide a clean bucket with fresh water for the fish. \nNo registration is required for this free event!
