On Saturday, August 9, 2007 Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge and Kittery Trading Post located in Kittery, Maine hosted a free "learn to fly fish" class for kids between the ages of 8 and 15.  The class took place at Kittery Trading Post (KTP), beginning inside the store where refuge intern Ben Dudek gave a brief introduction on the National Wildlife Refuge System, Rachel Carson, the Rachel Carson NWR, and salt marsh/fish ecology.  After Ben's presentation, staff from the Kittery Trading Post gave a brief presentation outlining the basics of fly fishing equipment, theory and fundamentals.  Participants then moved outside to the front lawn of KTP where there was a casting session which gave participants a chance to learn and practice the rudiments of proper fly casting.  Donna led the fly casting instruction portion of the event which lasted approximately an hour and fifteen minutes.
