The kids certainly had a great time especially when the stocking tube broke and fish were scttered on the ice. It was fun to see the kids chase the fish down with their hands and place the trout back into the water.

We need to have the tube break every year, my girls talked about the fish on top of the ice for hours. My girls are hooked on ice fishing now, Lauren and I had to go back out on Sunday and try are luck again. We did more sleding then fishing but she had to go see if she could catch just one more.
I think the smiles on all of the kids faces said "Thank you" to all of the people who helped put this event on.
