Default FEBRUARY 19th 2017 KINSMEN ICE FISHING DERBY GULL LAKE

Hi All,

I just wanted to get the word out the Red Deer Kinsmen are hosting a family fishing derby on February 19th 2017 at Brownlows Landing, Gull Lake. You can pre-register at the Sportsmen Den or Eastview IGA in Red Deer. I attached the poster to this thread. Please share!

There's more information on the Red Deer Kinsmen Facebook Page.

I'm not trying to be pessimistic about this or any other fishing derby. I think that it's great that there have been some fishing derby,s started lately. Years ago there were a number of derbies that a person could participate in, and they were great fun.
My question about this derby is where on the poster does it show the license or permit # that organizer's usually have to obtain to run a derby like this, especially since there is a cash entry fee?
I'll admit that I am stuck using my phone lately due to a back injury so perhaps I just don't see the license in the small print. Anyways, I hope it's all on the up and up and there is a good turnout. I might even drive down for the day.

I have to agree with your rational waterninja... as sportsmen and sportswomen we have to be careful on what we support. Thanks for bringing this potential issue to light!!

I'm sure the RedDeer Kinsmen are a fine organization and I hope they have great weather and a great turnout.
I only mentioned my concern because I remember some less then perfect derbies from the past.

Hi Waterninja,

Our Fishing Event Licence number is 5587545 CFE and it is on the poster near the bottom left corner. All proceeds from any of our fundraisers are donated back to Central Alberta community programs. Our intent for the fishing derby is to have a family friendly fishing event that's fun for the whole family and to raise a bit of money to be donated back to the community.

There is a Fishing Event license # towards the bottom left of page.

The Red Deer Kinsmen Facebook Page shows it in larger form
