Island Lake Fishing Tournament and Family Camping Weekend
Mark Your Calendars!
The 2012 Island Lake Bass Fishing Derby will be held July 7th - 8th.
The 3rd Annual Island Lake Fishing Tournament and Family Camping Weekend held at Island Lake Conservation Area on the weekend of July 9th and 10th was a huge success and raised more than $21,000 for the Island Lake Community Trails Campaign!
Over 226 participants came out to try their luck on the lake and win one of our many cash prizes. Families and individuals enjoyed the overnight campfires and even kids got to test their fishing skills at our kid’s fish pond. There was something there for everyone!
