The new school year is almost upon us and there is no better time to get elementary-aged kids "hooked" on Cub Scouting! And what better way to get them started off on their Scouting journey than to be outdoors on a Saturday morning on the shores of a lake catching fish!
The Old North State Council is happy to accomodate this through its annual Fishing Derby! This year it will be held on Saturday, September 26 from 8am-12noon at SIX locations spread across our area:
- City Lake Park, 602 W Main St., Jamestown
- Finch Park, 15 Paul Beck Rd., Lexington
- Graham-Mebane Lake, 3218 Bason Rd., Mebane
- Guilford County Farm, 7315 Howerton Road, Elon
- Lake Reidsville Park, 630 Water Works Rd, Reidsville
- Sportsmans Club, 7999 Winfree Rd., Summerfield
The cost is just $5 per person to partipate. As an added bonus, if your Scout brings someone along with them and they register to become a Scout at the event, BOTH the Scout and recruit will get a brand new fishing rod!
