Fishing Adventures with Active Solutions (Grades K-1)


After School Youth Classes / Wenonah -
After School Youth Enrichment Spring 2025

Wenonah Physical Education Teacher Mr. Pritchard will be teaching our Fishing Adventures class this spring! The classes include fishing adventures at Lake Nokomis (no fishing experience necessary). While at our favorite fishing holes, students will learn about: trail, water and fishing safety, proper identification and use of fishing equipment, baiting hooks (not required), removing fish from hooks (not required), casting techniques, presentation of bait and fish identification. We will practice catch and release techniques and use barbless hooks. Students will fish from fishing docks, shoreline and by wading out into the water (up to their knees). Character building, cooperative skills, individual success, trail and fishing etiquette and trail and fishing safety are all emphasized.

Students should bring the following: Light jacket, shorts, t-shirts, gym shoes, sweat pants/sweat shirts (if needed due to the weather), a water bottle, and an extra snack if desired. Sun screen will not be provided, but your student may bring their own sunscreen and apply it during after-school snack time.

Community Education uses a sliding scale model for program fees so our afterschool programs can be financially sustainable and more equitable. Families are asked to pick the price that they are able to pay. By more clearly articulating our lower cost options, we have removed the barrier that some may have felt in making scholarship requests. When families participate at the higher price levels, they help make the program more sustainable.
