AUBURN, Wash. - May 21, 2010 - Senior Adults, age 50 and older, are invited to fish in Auburn’s Mill Pond on Oravetz Road, across from Auburn Riverside High School on June 12 and 13. The pond is normally designated for juvenile fishing only, however the Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation Department has arranged for this special opportunity. Thanks to the Green River Steelhead Trout Club and Auburn Sports and Marine, the pond will be stocked. No licenses are necessary, as the event is held on Washington’s free fishing weekend. There will be a Senior Fishing Derby held on Saturday June 12 from 9am to noon. Tackle, bait and rods will be provided for those who need it. A plaque will be awarded to the angler who catches the largest fish. During the derby there will be Free Hot Dogs sponsored by Canterbury House and Auburn Senior Wellness Team.
