ByRisaJohnson ChicoEnterprise-Record YUBA CITY About one million endangered fish flooded into a stretch of the Feather River near Yuba City Monday, transported out of the Thermalito annex of the Feather River Fish Hatchery by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Admin- istration National Marine Fisher- ies Service. The Department of Fish and Wildlife wanted to free up some room at the crowded annex off Highway 99 west of Oroville and get the area's vital spring-run chi- nook salmon and steelhead trout into the river before predicted rainfall, as high flows can endan- ger the fish, said Andrew Hughan, public information officer for the department. Now those that make it will head downstream and eventu- ally to the ocean. In February, millions of fish were rescued from rough, dirty waters resulting from the Oro- ville Dam spillway emergency, ENVIRONMENT Swimming to freedom Onemillionchinook salmon rescued during Oroville Dam spillway crisis are released MissTehama County Jennifer Silvera sings the national anthem Saturday at the Tehama County Republican Central Committee Red White and Blue Dinner at the Red Bluff Veterans Memorial Hall.

The show was hosted by Corning 4-H. "We have about 20 primary so a total of 45 exhibitors," said Corning 4-H Leader Fawn Brunelle. "It's a county- wide show and it's a chance for our 4-H members to prac- tice for fair particularly in confirmation show and show- manship." While the show is a great way for members to gain some confidence in their showing skills any year, it is particu- larly important this year with the Tehama District Fair mov- ing to July, she said. The 2017 show is a few months earlier than in previous years. "This show has been go- ing on for about 20 years and branched out from our 4-H Fair Show," Brunelle said. "With the date change this year some of the kids are a bit rougher than normal." The show features 4-H mem- bers between the ages of 5 and 18 years old and includes rab- bit, dog, pygmy goat and poul- try projects. The event was made possi- ble in part thanks to the vol- unteers, which included both judges and clerks. In addition to Tehama County 4-H leaders helping out, the group also got some assistance from the Ar- buckle 4-H program who came to lend a hand. "We are thankful for our judges and clerks who vol- unteer," Brunelle said. "We couldn't put this show on with- out them."
