Quarterly Newsletters
Hello From the Iron River National Fish Hatchery!
To keep people informed about hatchery activities, we started a quarterly newsletter. This newsletter (Hatchery Highlights) features brief articles about some of the events, processes and procedures we are involved in. More information about specific articles can be obtained by contacting us. We are hoping to make more people aware of our presence and accomplishments. To place names to faces, or view our beautiful facility, please continue to visit our web site to see pictures of personnel, buildings and our staff at work.
We want to become more involved in our “Northland” community. Hatchery employees are available to attend events, speak to classrooms or groups and provide tours of our facility. Please feel free to stop by and check us out!
The newsletter can be received through normal mail or electronically by email. Please contact us to be placed on our email list or to be removed from our regular mailing list.
Thank You,
