Spend this summer in nature with Davenport Parks and Recreation

By Kenneth Asta
Bow Fishing Class - Thursday, June 20 - 6pm - 7pm
This class will involve one hour of class room instruction on the techniques of bow fishing, places, and best time of the year to fish. It will also include information on the equipment such as where to obtain it, as well as how it works. After the class room instruction there will be a demonstration at Nahant Marsh using under water targets at different depths. Followed by a question answer session at the end of the class.
Family Learn How to Fish Day - Saturday, June 22- 9am - 12pm
Fishing is a popular sport for many people, but do you know how to fish? Do you really know the techniques of fishing? Bring your entire family with your poles or borrow a few from the Davenport  Parks and Recreation and "Learn-How-To-Fish". The event will discuss basics about fishing, which will include fish identification, parts of the fishing pole, baiting your hook and much more. Sign up for door prizes at the event. We will provide the worms and you have fun fishing!
