Welcome to the annual Shawneeland Fishing Derby
For nearly four decades, the Shawneeland Fishing Derby has been a staple event in the community allowing kids from ages two to eighteen a chance to develop a love for fishing while promoting conservation in our area.
A Fish Story...
Anna Campbell was recognized in 2023 for over 30 years of service to the Shawneeland Fishing Derby
Anna began helping with the Fishing Derby many years ago and has been here ever since. Her commitment to the derby allowed this Shawneeland tradition to vibrantly continue to grow, welcoming new generations from previous anglers. Anna has seen her own generations cast their own luck in the ponds. In 2023, a pine tree was planted near the ponds in honor of her devotion to the families of the derby

Let's take a moment in memory
Penny Guy
Penny volunteered at the Shawneeland Fishing Derby for many years. You could often find her helping check in fish, sharing a good laugh with derby participants, and helping young anglers connect with the sport of fishing.
Sadly, she passed away in 2025. Her contribution to the youth of our community will be felt for many, many years.
