PASCACK VALLEY—The 30th Annual Kid Fishing Contest, sponsored by the Friends of the Pascack Brook, is on for Saturday, April 30 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., rain or shine. All kids 4–16 are invited to fish the Pascack Brook between St John R.C. Church in Hillsdale and Brookside Place in Westwood.
There is no advance registration or fee. In order to compete for trophies, prizes, and other awards, kids should have all trout caught the day of the contest measured and recorded during contest hours at the police booth in Hillsdale. All club-tagged fish caught will be awarded prizes during contest hours only.
Any child who wants to help stock the brook with fish should be accompanied by an adult and meet in the parking lot of the Hillsdale Public Library or the ball field by Brookside Place in Westwood, both at 7 a.m. the day of the contest. It would help to bring a clean spackle bucket to help stock with.
The Westwood Elks Lodge #1562, at 523 Kinderkamack Road, will serve hamburgers, hot dogs, and soda from noon to 1 p.m.
Anyone wishing to donate may send contributions to Friends of the Pascack Brook, P.O. Box 84, Hillsdale, N.J. 07642.
