The White Lake Area Sportfishing Association will host its annual "Kids Get Hooked on Fishing" event Saturday, Feb. 7 at Lebanon Lutheran Church in Whitehall from 9:45 a.m. to noon.
The free annual event is designed to get kids interested in fishing, teaching them the basics in a two-hour hands-on seminar. Experts from the association will be on hand to teach such basics as tying good knots, identifying types of fish, casting bait, and ice-fishing techniques.
The program is open to kids in grades 3-5, and parents and grandparents are asked to be there as well. All students to attend will be entered into a drawing for fishing prizes, and refreshments will be served.
While the class is free (provided by White Lake Area Community Education, the White Lake Chamber & Visitor's Bureau and WLASA), pre-registration is required. To register your child, visit wlace.com and click on 'Programs,' or call 231-893-0515.
