Green Valley State Park

(

)

... that Green Valley State Park in Iowa, which opened exactly 69 years ago, had multiple species of fish added to its artificial lake in 1974? Source: "The lake and its recreation area were dedicated as a state park on September 20, 1953." "In 1974 the 25-foot-deep lake was renovated and was later restocked with bluegills, crappies, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and northern bass. - Wolf, Robert Charles (1991). Iowa's State Parks. Iowa State University Press. p. 104.

- Comment: Special occasion nomination for September 20. I didn't add northern bass to the article because we don't have an article on it. My searches show that northern bass is likely still referring to largemouth bass.
