Junior Fishing Tournament at Greenbo Lake State Resort Park

July 13, 2012 by Joi Sigers Leave a Comment

Greenbo Lake

Greenbo Lake

Beautiful Greenbo Lake State Resort Park will host its Junior Fishing Tournament July 28 for ages 3-15.

Prizes will be awarded in each age group for the biggest fish caught and the most fish caught. Age groups are 3-5, 6-8, 9-12 and 13-15, both boys and girls. � Registration starts at 8 a.m. and the fishing tournament starts at 10 and goes to noon. No registration fee. No fishing in boats. This event is sponsored by Great Outdoors, Distinctive Specialtees, Evans Funeral Home and Pressure Tech.

What a great, great, great way to get the kids outside and spend quality time together.Ã?  Personally I don’t think nearly enough kids spend time in the great outdoors these days. Frankly, I don’t think staying inside playing games 24/7 is doing them any favors.Ã?  I LOVE events like this that encourage family fun while exposing kids to the fun and wonders of the great outdoors.

Greenbo Lake State Resort Park is on KY 1, 18 miles north of Interstate 64 from the Grayson exit, or 8 miles south of U.S. 23, the Country Music Highway on KY 1.

Greenbo Lake features the Jesse Stuart Lodge with 36 rooms, convention center and Anglers� Cove Restaurant.

The park has a 225-acre lake for boating and fishing, tennis courts, and 25 miles of multi-use trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding. The campground is open April 1 through Oct. 31. Greenbo�s amphitheater features musical concerts and plays during the summer and fall.

Most (not all) of the State Resort Parks have swimming pools for guests only.Ã?  Greenbo Lake State Resort Park has a very active community pool with water slide that sits near the lake. There’s a separate swimming pool that’s available for guests of the lodge.

Speaking of Greenbo Lake State Resort Park lodging, there’s currently a Fishermanââ?¬â?¢s Special that’ll… excuse the pun… float your boat.Ã?  Stay one night get the second night half price Sunday – Thursday. Valid through September 3, 2012.Ã?  Call 800-325-0083 for reservations.

Visit Greenbo Lake State Resort Park for a lot more information, pictures, and events.
