You know the old saying, “Give a man a fish and he can eat for a day, but teach a man to fish…..” Well, that doesnt really apply here, but it was the best way I could think to start a post about a kids fishing event. The 2009 Kids Fishing Derby is Saturday from 7am-Noon at Simmers Young Park in Auburndale and it is always a great event for families. The best part about the event is that it is FREE and there will be hot dogs and drinks for the kids who participate. Kids ages 4-15 will have the opportunity to learn about fishing and try to catch the “big one”. Every age group will have prizes and there will also be casting contests and more. Here is a rundown of the schedule:
7:00 a.m. Registration
8:00 a.m. Fishing Begins
10:00 a.m. Fishing Ends
10:15 a.m. Last Weigh in
10:30 a.m. Awards Presentations
BYOB – Bring your own bait….and have FUN. For more information call 534-6911.
