Saturday, June 2, and it was a hit. 92 kids registered to fish and over 100 adults attended to help
and chaperone. There was free food, free bait and lots of prizes for everyone who fished. We want to

Moody’s. Walmart, Hometown Bait and Tackle, Adirondack Anglers, Ollies and Rome Specialty Co. for contributing
To our prizes. Individuals such as Jason Bartlett also contributed to the Derby.
The grand prize winner with a trout of l6 ¾ inches was Alexander Congdon of Central Valley School. The
