One of the highest profile achievements from membership of Camrose & District Fish & Game Association is Pleasure Island Fish Pond, located just five minutes east of Camrose. Twice annually, this pond, open free to the public year round, is stocked with rainbow and brown trout. Catch and release fishing is encouraged at this scenic and appealing nature-lovers' attraction. Walking trails are also popular with guests who enjoy this tranquil location.
Proceeds from this year’s Wild Night, the 27th annual fundraiser for the active local Fish & Game Association, will be directed to additional maintenance and upgrades at the pond. Taking place at the Days Inn Norsemen Camrose on Saturday, March 23, all who attend are welcome to enjoy a hearty roast beef dinner, laugh with entertainer/comedian Cory Mack, take part in a silent auction, and may even win a raffle prize. Get your tickets now by calling Kevin at 780.679.4361, Glen at 780.678.6183 or Jun at 780.672.2890.
Barry Ness and Wayne Harde display admission tickets to this Saturday’s fundraiser.
