Event details
This ongoing event will be held Tuesday, July 22, to Saturday, July 27. Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday to Friday and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday.
Help Hidden Lakes Trout Farm look its best by picking up litter in the preserve. Fishing line and other debris pose serious threats to our furry and feathered friends. Animals may become entangled in fishing line or swallow hooks or bits of plastic. Check in with the front desk for a bucket and grabbers. Fill the bucket and return it to earn a treat from The Tackle Box.
