Fishing and Fun in the Forest on September 26

September 17, 2015

On Saturday, September 26th   Delta National Forest, Mississippi’s’ Lower Delta Partnership, and Sharkey Issaquena MSU Extension Service are hosting Fishing and Fun in the Forest at the Blue Lake Recreation Area.

This year in addition to fishing in Blue Lake, the Blue Lake Interpretive Trail will have several games and activities along its route. Youth may participate in the Nature Scavenger Hunt, or learn to shoot a BB gun and bow and arrow.  They can pet an alligator while learning about other forest creatures, and they will learn about fire safety.  The event will run from 8:30am until noon, with a hot dog lunch provided for all participants and adults.

Children wanting to fish in Blue Lake will need to bring their own poles and supplies; bait will be available at the event. All children up to 16 years of age are invited to participate in this free event.   Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Volunteers are needed to help with this event. Please contact Meg Cooper at the LDP office, 662-873-6261 if you would like to volunteer for the morning’s activities.
