STAFF REPORT
Nearly 3,000 children and adults gathered for the Annual Cerritos Kids Fishing Derby at Cerritos Regional Park on Saturday, June 7, 2014. The annual event was sponsored by Los Angeles County Supervisor Don Knabe, along with the City of Cerritos, the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation and the Cerritos Rod and Gun Club.
All the equipment is supplied by Knabe, but the best way you can choose a fishing rod and reel is to read this comprehensive article on Globo Surf.
The event began at 7:00am with a free pancake breakfast, followed by the fishing derby at 8:00am – 11:00am. Children had the opportunity to participate in free fishing and angler safety lessons. Each child also received a free t-shirt and were eligible to compete for prizes in other categories.
California Department of Parks and Recreation stocked the lake with 5,000 pounds of Catfish.
Volunteers from the Cerritos Senior Center showed up at 6:30am and members of the Rod and Gun Club showed up at 5:00am. Free breakfast was served and cooked by the Cerritos Rod and Gun Club. Free t-shirts for the event were given to participants and ran out by 8:15am
