Course Detail: 99ODEN - 99 Oden Fish Hatchery and Harbor Springs History Tour - VIRTUAL and IN PERSON

Before joining the group onsite, get a preview of the Harbor Springs area and its history with a virtual session the day before. The following day, participants will get an interesting look into the Oden State Fish Hatchery, originally started in 1921, and get a chance to see both rainbow and brown trout brook stock and fry in production. Participants will have a chance to tour the facility and see incubation along with viewing chambers and ponds. Afterward, we will look at a recreated 1914 Wolverine train car on the property that serves as an exhibit about the transportation conservation employees took while moving fish across the state to stock ponds and lakes. When we leave our fishy friends behind, participants will have lunch at Vernales steak house in nearby Harbor Springs, followed by a step-on guided tour with Beth Wemigwase of the Harbor Springs History Museum. This historical day will conclude with some free time in Harbor Springs. This trip includes virtual session on Harbor Springs, motorcoach transportation from SVSU, lunch, and tours of the fish hatchery, museum, and Hexagon House.
