 Feed
TUESDAY, 8 JULY 2008
The Catskill Fly Fishing Center and Museum has combined its Annual Summerfest, Angler's Market, and Jubilee Day to create the largest single day event in its 27-year history. Traditionally held on the last Saturday of August, The Anglers Market and Summerfest now moved up to August 10. This single event brings out the best in fishing treasures discovered over the past year from the closets, attics, and basements. Every year, attendees search over 100 tables in the quest to find that unique outdoorsy thing, hard-to-find fly tying material, fly fishing collectible, gadget or obscure book. Combined with the highly successful Jubilee Day, it will be a Super Sunday in the Catskills.
The Catskill Fly Fishing Center will come alive at 8:30AM with the opening of the Anglers Market, Summerfest and Jubilee Day that will include many local civic organizations, health centers, farmers' produce market, crafts, and games for kids. The CFFCM will once again celebrate birthday and anniversary milestones ending in a zero (0) or five (5). Everyone is welcome and cake will be provided. Share your celebration with your family and community. It's a great day for families and friends to gather. Call the CFFCM and be included, the more the merrier.
The day's activities will include a 'kids only (12 and under) fishing derby' which will be held at 11:30AM at the CFFCM pond with prizes for first fish, most fish, largest fish, and smallest fish. Kids are to bring their own tackle and favorite baits. Many features include: Mike Canazon and the Bamboo Guys will host a bamboo rod casting clinic and be glad to assist those interested in cane rods, The Fly Fishing Antique Roadshow will be held from noon until 1PM to help you identify and appraise attic finds, The Great Willowemoc 50/50 fish race at 1:30 and cake will immediately follow, and there is more... live fiddle music, BBQ, petting zoo, pony rides, and: guaranteed fun for all. Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to see old friends and spend a special Sunday at the CFFCM.
