Almost every year (forget 2020) for a long, long time, the Loveland Fishing Club and other kid-loving Lovelanders get together to host the annual Kids Fishing Derby on the first Saturday in June, a free fishing day throughout Colorado.
This year, at the club's request, the derby will be a couple hours shorter than years past, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, June 4th at the North Lake Park Duck Pond.
Club derby chair Rick Golz says the club will again handle event registration, tackle for kids who need it, measurement of fish and free raffles. In addition to prizes in raffle drawings throughout the competition, we'll provide prizes for biggest and smallest trout caught.
If you've not signed up to volunteer; rickdgolz@gmail.comThis is one of the club's biggest events, and we need all hands on deck.
Organizers besides the club are the Loveland Police, Loveland Kiwanis Clubs that provide low-cost food and drink, Colorado Fraternal Order of Police with their free kettle corn, Colorado Youth Outdoors to teach participants how to clean, cook and eat their fish, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife, which stocks the pond with catchable trout.
