WASHINGTON COURT HOUSE — The Washington Fire Department has scheduled an event for children to fish with a firefighter to be held on Saturday, April 27 at Eyman Park from 9 a.m. to noon.
The fire department is partnering with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and the Washington High School Fishing Club for this event.
Children must be accompanied by an adult. The adult must take full responsibility for the safety of the child they accompany. The event is free. No registration is required.
Children are encouraged to bring their own rod and tackle. A limited supply will be available on a first come first serve basis. Bait will be provided while supplies last.
All volunteer fire departments serving Fayette County will be joining the Washington Fire Department to help with this children’s’ educational activity.
