Kids’ Fishing Day this Saturday

May 15, 2019
Charlea Estes-Jones

              This Saturday marks a family favorite in the area. Kids’ Fishing Day at Roaring River State Park will offer free fishing, classes, activities and food to youngsters wanting to cast a line in the water or at least learn a little more about the outdoors through educational opportunities.
              The spring Kids’ Fishing Day event will be held on Saturday, May 18, with fishing starting at 6:30 a.m. and running until 8:15 p.m. Throughout the day, there will be classes, food, fishing, music and more to keep the whole family entertained.
              Kids’ Fishing Day is a free opportunity for kids ages 15 and under. Tags will be available in the main tent near the hatchery. Most of the park’s waters will be dedicated to youth-only fishing with volunteers on site to help teach kids the ins and outs of catching trout. Kids are encouraged to bring their own fishing equipment if they have any.
              Classes this year will include a petting zoo, Mexican cuisine cooking, a cave hike, reptile classes, crafts, fly tying and more.
              The big prize drawing will be held for children who attend classes during the day, as well. The main stage will feature prize giveaways beginning at 5 p.m. Children must be present to win.
              For more information about Kids’ Fishing Day or for a full list of classes before the event, call the Roaring River Hatchery at (417) 847-2430.
