Event Description

Dust off those bucket hats and fishing rods and join us at Kankakee Valley Park Districts quarry to celebrate National Go Fishing Day on June 18 from 4:00-6:00 pm at the Bird Park Quarry in Kankakee. This event is free to public and is meant to help encourage taking a break from the daily routine by dropping a line - in the nearest stream, pond, lake, or river and catch some fish while relaxing and taking in the great outdoors.

Please note: In Illinois, anyone under the age of 16 is not required to have a fishing license. Anyone over the age of 16 must provide a valid Illinois fishing license in order to participate in the event.
