🎣 Reeling in the Fun at the KLSC Kids Fishing Derby 2025On a rainy June 8, 2025, Kelly Lake Holt Park was buzzing with excitement as 125 eager young anglers gathered for our annual Kids Fishing Derby! Rain did not stop these kids. Some of thek ids cast their lines with determination and dreams of catching "the big one”, while others celebrated their very first catch, all their faces lighting up with pride as their fish were weighed and measured.
Highlights of the day included a fish contest, awarding prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in six fish species including Bass, Northern, Walleye, Perch, Blue Gill and Crappie. A lunch of chips, hot dogs, string cheese plus homemade cupcakes and cookies were served to the kids and their families. After lunch we draw from 37 buckets for raffle prizes, all donated from area businesses and friends of Kelly Lake Sportsman’s Club. Each participant of the derby received 10 free raffle tickets to place in the buckets of their choice. The event wrapped up with the grand prize of a kayak and fishing package donated in memory of Eddie & Janice Watruba. The Kelly Lake Sportsman’s Club Kids Fishing Derby at Kelly Lake Holt Park wasn’t just about the fish—it was about fun, friendship, and the joy of spending time in nature. Until next year, keep those lines tight and spirits high! 🐟 🏆 |
