    DESCRIPTION

    Derby Day Photo

    Our Kid's Fishing Derby has a new name! Derby Day combines the annual Fishing Derby with a Bike Derby and healthy summer kick off!

    Fishing Contest
    Anglers ages 2 to 14 are welcome to compete in the fishing contest. Check-in is at 8 a.m., with fishing going from 8:30 to 10 a.m.   While you're waiting enjoy local vendors geared to help you have a healthy summer.  There will also be exercise and presentations on the stage before and after the derby awards!

    Awards

    • Awards will be presented at 11:00 a.m. in six age categories and for the overall longest fish. 
    • Each winner will receive a fishing pole, tackle box and trophy.
    • The grand prize winner will have the fish mounted as a trophy and receive it at a City Council meeting.


    What to Bring
    Bring your own pole, tackle and bait as none will be provided.


    Fishing Clinic
    Colorado Parks and Wildlife will have a fishing clinic and drawings for free fishing poles.
    There will be mementos, snacks and lots of fun for all participants, so come and be part of the excitement.


    Bike Derby

    • Starting at 9:30 a.m., the city will host a free bike derby and obstacle course for youth.
    • Bicycle Colorado will provide the bikes and helmets.
    • We’ll even raffle away refurbished bikes and new helmets.
    • You can also learn how to make minor repairs to your bike during a free workshop.

     

    Derv=by Day LogoColoring Contest
    The new Derby Day logo is so much fun, we want to celebrate it with a coloring contest!  Print off the coloring sheet here.
