I want to remind everyone that there is a special event planned for the Blackbird Island Juvenile fishing pond. My neighbor, Calder Fiske, is my number one fan, and probably the most enthusiastic angler I know. Although just 12 years old, Calder has come up with a plan to help get kids out to experience the fun of fishing. He has planned a Just for Kids Fishing Fun Day at Blackbird Island Pond in Leavenworth on Saturday, August 17th. Blackbird Island Pond is open to Juveniles only and only kids under the age of 15 can fish here. Calder has medals to award anglers who turn in their biggest fish in several age categories, from age four up to age 14. He also has a medal to give the angler that clearly had no help from their parent. Kids need to bring their own fishing gear. Families can register their kids when they arrive at the pond. The event starts at 7 a.m. and you can turn in fish until noon. If you have any questions or would like to volunteer to help at the event, you can contact Calder at Calder.fiske@icloud.com.
