GROVETON — Kids, it’s time to wet a line. The Groveton Fish & Game Club invites all kids ages 4-12 to the Otis Shannon Memorial Kids Fishing Derby on Sunday, June 1, on the Club’s grounds at 1099 Lost Nation Road, Groveton.

This is a free event, and pre-registration is not required. Show up at 9 a.m. to register and get ready for some pole-bending action. Bring your own equipment and bait. The pond will be heavily stocked with brook and rainbow trout. Anglers will compete by age groups and there will be fun prizes and fishing gear giveaways.
