The Warwick Valley Rod & Gun Club hosts their annual “Take a Kid Fishing Day” on Saturday, May 2 from 9 a.m. to noon. The event, which stocks more than 500 trout for the youth event, takes place on the Wawayanda Creek’s Baird property located on Baird’s Lane between Sanfordville Rd and Covered Bridge Rd. This free event is for ages five through 14 and food and refreshments will be available.

“Get Hooked on Fishing, Not Drugs” Orange County District Attorney David M. Hoovler announced the sixth Youth Fishing Derby. This year it will run from April 1 to September 14. The contest is open to children aged four to 18 who are children or grandchildren of Orange County residents. As part of the DA’s Community Outreach Program, the derby encourages outdoor activity to deter drug use and gang involvement by alleviating boredom and anxiety. Fishing teaches patience and resilience, qualities used by several U.S. presidents to manage office stress. Entry is free. Fish of any size, fresh or saltwater, must be legally caught in New York State according to state regulations. To enter, email a photo of the child with their catch, the child’s first name, and an adult’s phone number to dafishingcontest@gmail.com. Each angler may submit up to three entries. Ten winners will be drawn at random from all entries. Each participant is eligible for a single prize package, which includes a Mystery Tackle Box Bass Fishing Kit and an official, limited edition District Attorney’s Office t-shirt. As a special bonus, the first winner selected will also be awarded a $100 gift card. Upon the conclusion of the contest, winners may collect their prizes at the DA’s office in Goshen or have them delivered by mail. Please note that all photos submitted during the derby will become the property of the District Attorney’s Office.
