Newark Rec has invited local Scouts to come in early before the public to complete their fishing adventure at the annual Fishing in the City event!
|
WHEN: Saturday, June 7, 2025 from 7:45am to 10:30am
WHERE: Lakeshore Park in Newark, California
The Scouts are welcome to arrive between 7:45 AM-8:00 AM. This gives them 30 minutes prior to the public coming after they sign in. This event is intended for kids 5-15. The event runs from 8:30AM - 10:30AM for the public and scouts can also come during this time but will need to check in with everyone else.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!! - Since the city of Newark has been so gracious to allow us to come early it would be amazing if we could help them by volunteering. Teens can volunteer by going to this link: https://newarkca.activityreg.com/selectactivity_t2.wcs#. Continue to Sign up under "Summer 2025" and "Teen Volunteer", then select "Fishing in the City".
