Fishing was open to children ages two to eleven, a free snack was provided after fishing was completed at 11:00 A.M. A Prize package was awarded from a drawing for each age group, those being in the following three age groups. Ages two to five, Ages six to eight, and ages nine to eleven. The limit was one fish per individual child could be kept during the derby. Per Lincoln County Port Authority, the Mill Pond by the Museum is a catch and release pond.
