Make a difference: Help out with Project Green Teen

We’re excited to (slowly) bring back opportunities to work with youth through a long-standing collaboration between SWTU and Shabazz High School in Madison! Due to district Covid precautions we can’t bring back all of the same experiences of the past, but this is a step in the right direction.

Come pass on your fly fishing knowledge with the next generation of student fly fishers at Shabazz High School through a series of workshops with Project Green Teen (PGT).
