Does taking up painting at age 80 sound like a daunting prospect? George Fischer of Bluffton has done just that. You could say that painting is Fischer’s third or fourth career. He worked in advertising until age 50, when he earned his law degree. In retirement, George and his wife Lois traveled the country in an RV, often volunteering at national parks.

MEDIA RELEASE__For over forty years, the Allen Soil and Water Conservation District has helped local pond owners stock their ponds affordably, and we are thrilled to carry on this tradition.
Adding fish to your pond sparks a thriving food chain among plants, fish, and all the creatures that call it home. Healthy fish are the secret to a balanced ecosystem. They not only keep pesky insects in check but also feast on extra nutrients from aquatic plants, helping your water stay clear and vibrant.
