Herman The Sturgeon Birthday Celebration
(Cascade Locks, OR) -- Herman the Sturgeon's birthday is this Saturday at the Bonneville Fish Hatchery. Herman is over 80 years old, around ten feet long and weighs over 500 pounds. Herman's story starts in the 1930s at the Roaring River Fish Hatchery. Herman was moved to the Oregon State Fair each year, but that ended in the 1980s. Now, Herman lives in a special pond at the Bonneville Fish Hatchery. His birthday celebration is from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday. You can take a selfie with Herman, sign his birthday card and then travel to Hood River where Ferment Brewing has made a "High Five, Herman!" IPA.
