The 2015-2016  year of Chapter TIC involvement has come to a conclusion with trout releases and Hatchery Tours. May was a busy month with six releases of TIC trout. Five of the classes released their trout into Dry Run Creek or the confluence of DRC and the Norfork River. The ten  photos are representative of these activities and are listed as follows:
