Bucktail Rod & Gun Club hosted their annual youth ice fishing in memory of Russell E. Rhoads Jr.

There were 44 young people that registered in the event on Saturday. It was a chilly day on the ice but that did not phase the kids as they were busy catching fish! There were many Rhoads family members and friends that volunteered to help with this event. They allowed the youth to use their equipment and show them the basic techniques of ice fishing. The clubhouse was open which housed many other volunteers that were taking care of the hotdogs, hot chocolate, and coffee. Check out these awesome cookies that were donated for the event along with other baked goods. Towards the end of the event prizes were given out by the Rhoads family for youth that attended the event. A big thank you to the Rhoads family for donating prizes for the kids. I would like to also thank anyone who volunteered in anyway, this event could not have been possible without your help.
