Kilgore – Kilgore Economic Development Corporation has teamed with Skeeter Boats, Allied/Republic Services, The Boys and Girls Club of Kilgore, and Texas Parks and Wildlife to provide Kilgore children up to 12 years a fantastic trout fishing opportunity at Elder Lake in Synergy Park December 12 from 10:00 a.m. to 2 p.m.
“Trout for Tots at Elder Lake” provides free fishing fun for kids as they experience catching and keeping rainbow trout. When each child registers they will receive a gift bag and bait of corn and marshmallows. TP&W will have a limited supply of rods & reels, and children are encouraged to bring their own.
“Trout for Tots” is part of a special Saturday for children in Kilgore. Also from 10 AM to 2 PM, the Kilgore Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau will present the Mt. Kilgore Snow Hill downtown. The event is free and guarantees real snow providing a downhill tubing adventure for kids taller than 42 inches.
Synergy Park is located two miles south of Interstate 20 on US 259 Loop. Elder Lake is immediately to the left on entering the park. For more information on “Trout for Tots” call 903.983.3522. Good fishing!
