Kids Fishing Derby 2022 - May 28th at 7:00AM
The kids’ fishing derby is back again on May 28th at the Evert Pierson Kids’ Fishing Ponds. There will be poles provided by Parks and Wildlife and lots of prizes. Fishing kicks off at 7:00am and goes until 10:00am when the prizes will be handed out.
Though rods, bait, and tackle are provided, you’re more than welcome to bring your own. We ask if possible that the barbs be bent down on hooks to make for a better time for the fish (and easier work for us parents). We recommend bringing eye protection and sunscreen as well. We’ll have club members and volunteers walking around to help out should you have any questions. Bait is provided, but we recommend simple lures, worms, or Powerbait if you would like to bring your own.
Fishing will start at 7am with prizes being offered for the first fish caught at the top of each hour (7, 8, 9). A largest fish contest will be happening as well throughout the whole event. At 10 am, there will be a raffle for the remaining prizes.
We’ll be selling supporter tickets as well at the event, a great and inexpensive way to support the work we do ($1 per ticket).
We look forward to seeing everyone there. Any questions, feel free to reach out to us in the
