KALKASKA — Festival-goers can put the 84th National Trout Festival back on their calendars, after organizers recently announced plans to move forward with the festival set for April 21-25 in Kalkaska.

NTF Committee members met on Jan. 25 to decide the fate of this year’s festival, waiting to see conditions and possible governmental regulations related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

“We talked about it extensively,” said Diana Needham, committee chairwoman. “We’re going to do what we can to have the festival. For right now, we’re going to go for it.”
