Catch a Rainbow Kids Fishing Derby began as a small event in 1986. Over the past 30 years, it has blossomed into one of the largest children’s fishing events in the country.

​

Designed as a way to connect families with nature, and promote outdoor activity in children, this event provides a fun-filled day for all who attend.

​

Each year, on the first Saturday in June, approximately 4,000 individuals venture down to Hatchery Creek. Children under 16 are given the opportunity to fish and receive a prize, while the whole family enjoys unlimited refreshments and other activities throughout the day.​
