A free fishing derby for kids will be held on Saturday, April 12 at the McNary Ponds.

The event, sponsored by Tome Denchel Ford, is for children ages 2-12 and takes place from 10 a.m. to noon. The McNary Ponds will be stocked and special fish will be tagged for prizes. All normal fishing regulations will be in effect. Participants should bring their own fishing poles and gear, though some loaner poles will be available.

All children must be accompanied by an adult and all fish caught must be reeled in by the child.
