Inclement weather delays fishing derby

The Lawrence Parks and Recreation annual Fish’N 4 Fun fishing derby has been postponed to Saturday because of inclement weather.

The derby is open to children under age 13. The cost for each angler is $5, and children are asked to provide their own fishing poles and bait.

A license is required for adults who plan to fish. All fish caught will be released. Lunch will be provided, and prizes will be given away.

The derby will be from 8:30 a.m. to noon at Mary’s Lake, 31st Street and Haskell Avenue.

People can still register online at www.lprd.org or by visiting one of the recreation facilities. For more information, call Duane Peterson, special events supervisor, at 832-7940.
