Upcoming Events

 Do your kids love fishing or maybe they’ve never been and really want to try it? Then come on down to this year’s Fishing in the City event at Lake Chabot – next to the Dan Foley Cultural Center. Here, they will learn the fundamentals of fishing, with demonstrations and instructional programs. Once they’ve learned the basics, it’s time to see if they can catch that really big fish! That’s right, and we’ll also clean it and wrap it up for your child to bring home to cook. This is a FREE event & lunch is provided, so register your kids today – space is limited. Leave your equipment at home, everyone is required to use the fishing gear provided, and every participant gets their very own tackle box to keep! Participants must be accompanied by an adult, limit 2 kids per adult. Only registered children ages 7-15 may fish, younger children and adults will not be permitted to fish.
