Soldiers Home Fishing Derby

Come join us as we visit the Soldiers Home in Orting to enjoy a day with it's members and doing some fishing.

The Orting Washington State fishing Derby is Saturday April 27th. The event starts at 9am and ends at 12 noon. The pond will be stocked with around 700 fish prior to the event. We will be starting to help out as early as 8:15am at the soldiers home. At the Soldiers Home, we are there to assist veterans to and from their room/ buildings to the pond. Assist in fishing, baiting the hook if they need it, (worms, fake bait and power bait), some won't be able to cast the fishing rods so we will have to help those that can't, also cleaning fish for the fish fry, cooking, food prep, serving food and cleaning up after 12 to get things put away. The veterans are so excited for us to come help and fish with them! If you've always wanted to help out veterans that have fought for all of us, and this country, let's show them a good time and have the greatest day ever!
