“Rock Creek Hatchery has produced millions of fish for Nebraska anglers to catch. In 2024 alone, Rock Creek Hatchery was scheduled to stock more than 92,000 rainbow trout and 2,500 tiger trout.”

Once regarded as the most popular of all game fish, the rainbow trout still has a big presence in Nebraska waters. In the early 1900s, trout were not only a staple food source for many but also an esteemed sport fish for anglers. Because of this popularity, ideas began to form at the Nebraska Bureau of Fish and Game, now the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, about growing rainbow trout.

Then, in 1924, the Bureau purchased 20 acres of land north of Parks for a new hatchery for $4,500. Fed by Rock Creek, a series of the largest and coldest springs in Nebraska, the Bureau planned for this new hatchery to supply the entire state with trout.

It was a lofty goal that quickly gathered steam.

Congratulations, Trystin!

I am so proud to share this accomplishment with the DCS family. Trystin Eversole was the first DCS student to participate in the New 3-D Art Class at the High School in 2023-2024. While in class he created this clay relief sculpture, entered it in the local Dundy County Fair where it won the honors to go to the Nebraska State Fair. It was recognized for the attention to great detail in the plants he created .

Art is a wonderful way to show the world what you can do and I believe this work shows us that Trystin is great at detail and is passionate about getting things right.

Congratulations on a job well done!
