Ice-Fishing Trip on Black Lake

The Ice-Fishing Trip on Black Lake was a lot of fun.

Once again, kids entered the Fishing Derby in order to compete for prizes with the rest of the folks who fished the Lake last weekend. The only problem was, the fish decided not to bite.

So, we resorted to Plan B. The kids all got a few turns on the snowmobile and ATV. We rode across the lake and around the land. Those who weren't on the motorized vehicles took the sleds and went sliding along the long, sloping road near the camp. Everyone had a blast.

So the net of the story is, we played more this year than usual because the fish decided not to cooperate. And that was not a bad thing after all. The children received a gift and went home with happy memories.

A big "Thank You" goes out to the supporters who responded to our call for supplies and funds to make this event a success.
