Is It Still Hooked on Fishing??


Our ponds seem to have attracted a large number of geese. Perhaps over the winter we should change our name to "Hooked on Geese".

OUR VOLUNTEERS MAKE THE PARK POSSIBLE


Above are pictured some of the volunteers who have helped this year.

The Hooked on Fishing Park volunteers make everything happen.  Without our volunteers there would be no Hooked on Fishing.  Throughout the year they havebeen there when we needed them. Whether it was help with the groups, fishing derbies, fundraising, park maintenance, or emergency sandbagging, the volunteers have done it all. 

Each one who has volunteered is due a BIG "thank you".

If you would like to become one of our volunteers, call us at 309-219-3560.

PARK SET TO REOPEN

ATTENTION...........................SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
 ---Due to recent heavy rains and a rising river, the park is again flooded. Fishing stations and some interior park roads are presently covered with about a foot of water.   For those reasons, we have to temporarily close the park once again.  We expect that it may take up to two weeks for the water to go back down.
All events through June 14 are canceled. 


            FISHING DERBY SCHEDULED FOR JUNE 15 IS POSTPONED TO JULY 6TH.

The flood repair was costly and our finances are running very thin.  Donations at this time are much needed and much appreciated. If you are able to donate, you can do it one of three ways:
1.You can donate by credit card online through PayPal by clicking on the link below.
2. You can mail your check to us at Hooked on Fishing, PO Box 176, Washington, IL 61571.
