Registration requires child's name, age and a contact number or email and for what time slot.
If you haven't already had the opportunity to introduce your child to ice fishing or the sport of fishing, I highly recommend this derby as an introduction to the sport.
I look forward to seeing all the smiles on those young anglers faces again this year.
