Diabetes Partnership of Cleveland will be holding its 1st annual family-friendly fishing derby on Saturday, October 6, 2012, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. from the shores of Camp Ho Mita Koda’s freshwater lake located at 14040 Auburn Road, Newbury in Geauga County.
This is a benefit for Camp Ho Mita Koda. It is a very special place for children with type 1 diabetes to have fun, make friends, and learn about diabetes. Adults $10, Children 12 and under $5. An adult must accompany and sign a waiver for all participants 18 and younger.
The event is rain or shine for young and old alike and there is no advanced registration, no fishing license required, and prizes will be awarded. Parents bring your kids with bait, fishing poles, and a cooler with ice to store all your “catches of the day” and spend the morning fishing for hungry bluegill, crappie, small mouth bass, and a variety of other fish. While supplies last, loaner rods are available for children who do not have their own.
