Over the weekend, Sussex County residents took advantage of the beautiful October weather to participate in the 1st annual Sparta Glen Fall Fun Day hosted by North Jersey Trout Unlimited and the SCMUA-Wallkill River Watershed Management Group. Attendees had an opportunity to learn about the stream restoration project, observe live aquatic insects, hike along the ridge to view Lake Mohawk from above, participate in the Kids’ Corner crafts, and tie flies with members of Trout Unlimited.

Countless partners helped make the day a success including:

  • North Jersey Trout Unlimited
  • SCMUA-Wallkill River Watershed Management Group
  • Sparta Township
  • NJ Fish and Wildlife
  • AmeriCorps NJ Watershed Ambassador Program
  • NJ Highlands Coalition
  • Sparta Historical Society
  • Sparta Kiwanis
  • Sparta Middle School Builders Club

North Jersey Trout Unlimited and the SCMUA-Wallkill River Watershed Management Group look forward to hosting more events in the future to reacquaint the Sparta community to the beauty of the Sparta Glen!
