This Sunday Hooked on Fishing will be at Kennel Lake.

Due to the flooding at there ponds we are welcoming them to the property.

If you know someone that has wanted to fish Kennel Lake here is a chance. It is also a great time to become familiar with Hooked on Fishing if you don’t know anything about them.

It is catch and release.

We are doing a membership initiative and will be hosting an open house at the lake on Sunday July 12th from noon until 6:00 p.m. There is no fee associated with this event.

If you have family members or friends that are interested in joining, they may come out to the lake during that time. They will be able to fish (catch and release) swim, play disc golf, and/or just picnic and relax.

Any non-member that completes an application that day including payment will get their dues for the rest of 2026 for half price. ($112.50 dues plus $100 initiation fee). Applications will be voted on at the monthly board meeting on Monday, July 13th.
