Earthfest: Celebrate Arbor Day
Saturday, April 22, 2023
Earthfest will offer plenty of activities for adults and kids alike. The popular Youth Fishing Derby takes place 10 a.m. to noon. This free event provides youth, ages 14 and under, the opportunity to catch and release fish at Lake Tuscawilla. Prizes will be awarded in three age group brackets for catching the most fish and for catching the biggest fish. Participants are encouraged to bring their own equipment and bait; however, a limited number of supplies will be available. Registration is not required.
In addition to the Youth Fishing Derby, the event includes tree climbing, eco-friendly vendors, an interactive butterfly exhibit, animal rescues, food trucks, and live entertainment. Tree sapling giveaways are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
