FROM DEC DELIVERS---CELEBRATE WORLD FISH MIGRATION DAY ON MAY 30

Celebrate World Fish Migration Day on May 30----Each spring the Hudson River is alive with migratory fish species that are drawn into the protective waters of the estuary as part of their spawning cycle. World Fish Migration Day is a global celebration to create awareness about the importance of migratory fish and free-flowing rivers.

Environmental organizations of the Lower Hudson and Harbor have come together to put on family-friendly, free fishing events for the public to engage in the wonders of the Hudson River!
