Dear TIC teachers, educators, and friends,
Happy February! Trout release season starts at the end of next month, and the Trout Release Permit Application Form is due March 15. It is illegal to release your trout without a permit, so please fill it out as soon as possible so that NYS DEC can issue your permit before your release. Also on March 15 is our TIC Spring Conference at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden from 8:30 am-2:30 pm. Please register for the Spring Conference here.
Finally, this month we are piloting TIC Office Hours on Wednesday, February 28 at 3:30 pm. If you have any tank maintenance issues, questions about your trout release, or just want to network with your TIC community, feel free to drop in. You can join here, and the invitation is also attached to this email.
Please also make sure to check out the attached newsletter for other announcements and opportunities.
All the best,
Nicki
