2008 Fishing Rodeo
The 2008 Fishing Rodeo was held on June 7 and had a nice turnout with 34 kids coming to the IWLA Barn on Shenandoah Lake to brave the heat and enjoy the day with family and FISH! We had Hot Dogs, Chips, Cookies, and Kool Aid for lunch. After that we gave out certificates and prizes to the all the children. Judging by all the smiles everybody had a great time!
The IWLA sponsors the Annual Fishing Rodeo each year to promote environmental awareness and appreciation in the young people of today in hopes that they will take these lessons with them as they continue to enjoy the outdoors as adults. If the photos are any indication, these kids are off to a good start!
Special Thanks to Wal-Mart, Bridgewater IGA, and the Rockingham Cooperative Farm Bureau for their generous donations that made the fishing rodeo possible!
