Happy Hikers Club: Fishing with the YMCA and the Metro Parks!
About this Event
Drop a line in Schrock Lake and try to catch a big one! Naturalists and volunteers will teach children how to cast, bait their own hook, and then try fishing on their own. Parents will need to assist their children. The park will provide poles and bait, but families are welcome to bring their own equipment if they have it. Our STEM team will provide a fun interactive activity for everyone as well!
