The officers of the Lake Linden-Hubbell Sportsmen’s Association have decided to cancel
this summer’s 47th Annual Rice Lake Fishing Derby scheduled for Sunday, June 14th.
This decision was made after careful monitoring of the COVID-19 outbreak that is currently sweeping our nation and other world countries.
Due to the uncertain possible extension of Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s executive stay-at-home order, this difficult decision was made in order to ensure the well-being and safety of our derby patrons, volunteers and all the contributing local merchants as our top priority.
In the meantime, our cash raffle is still proceeding as previously scheduled. Please do your best to sell or purchase tickets that you received in the mail as this will be our only fundraiser this summer.
Another request is that all our members consider doing what they can to help support our many local businesses who are currently struggling due to shutdowns and self-isolation requirements.
Please note that Club meetings are canceled until further notice.
When we are totally back to our new normal we will then begin our planning efforts for the 2021 Fishing Derby to make it a truly great day of family fun once again.
Peaceful Prompt – Try to emulate as we hunker down to fend off this virus: “To cure sometimes, to relieve often, to comfort always.” Let us provide solace and show compassion as much as possible to those in need.
Thank you for your understanding.
Tom Grimm, President

Deer Feeding:
Historically, we have given a high priority to helping deer survive the harsh Keweenaw winters. A large portion of our funds is dedicated for winter deer survival. As sportsmen, we have observed first hand the benefits of this feeding program. Due to the extreme winter conditions, the Keweenaw deer population is low. The feeding program helps keep the herd at a socially acceptable level. Click on the Feed the Deer button below to help!
