April showers bring May flowers and the sign that spring is upon us! After months of up and down—and down and down—temperatures, everyone is ready to get out of the house and into nature! Luckily the Brazos Valley is home to some of the best places to catch the sun and enjoy the fresh air.
College Station has an ample amount of opportunities to get outside. On Saturday, April 20, residents are invited to learn more about environmental stewardship and ethical angling through the sport of fishing during “Fishing’s Future: Family Angling.”
The event, which takes place at Stephen C. Beachy Central Park Pond, is free to the public and offers families the chance to bond while learning basic fishing skills. Those 17 and older will need a valid fishing license to participate and registration is required.
Fishing begins at 8:30 a.m. Participants are encouraged to bring their own equipment and a sack lunch.
Those interested can register for the event online at www.cstx.gov/events
