The weather stayed comfortably in the mid-60s/low-70s, the lake was in great shape and the fish were biting! The largest fish caught was 16½ inches, while the smallest was 3 inches. This year, we decided to open up another section of the lake that had previously been roped off, which allowed everyone to spread out a little more.
We went through over 1,000 red worms, 800 nightcrawlers and 250 waxworms (thanks to our friends at Gearhart's Country Market for giving us a great deal)! Special thanks to our prize sponsors for the event:
- Doc Tile Flooring
- WoodmenLife
- Target
- Schwebel’s
- Reinhart Food Service
- Monteverde’s
- Marburger Dairy Farm
- Culligan Water
And a HUGE THANK YOU to all the volunteers, including the many Concordia employees/families, WoodmenLife, Trail Life Troop #PA1418, Saxonburg Fire Police and all the others who made the day a huge success! If you missed it, below are some pictures (click photos to enlarge). Feel free to leave a comment below or over on our Facebook Page. And if you have any pictures from the event, post them to the Concordia Facebook Wall!
Be sure to check the Events & News page for coming events at Concordia. The next mini fishing derby will be at the Summer Festival on the Cabot Campus, July 29. More info on that to come!
