Fishing poles available for the first 40 kids who arrive! Bait and fishing help and tips free of charge.
Kids of all ages are urged to enjoy a day set aside just for them to fish. Kid’s Fishing Day will be held Saturday, June 16, from 9 a.m. to 12 noon at Wallace State Park near Cameron.
Kids
ages 5 to 12 can cast their lines into the park’s lake and try their
luck at catching the first fish of the day. Fishing poles will be
provided to the first 40 kids to register that morning. Kids that bring
their own poles do not need to register. Bait and assistance will be
provided and parents are encouraged to attend.
This
free event is sponsored by Missouri State Parks and the Missouri
Department of Conservation. A nature display and drawings for prizes
will take place at the park’s open shelter house.
