Cobb PARKS held several fishing rodeos over the summer to give kids a chance to cast a line and see what they can catch.
At each of the rodeos, including Hyde Farm in early July and Ebenezer Downs Park on July 30, trophies were given for youngsters who caught the five biggest fish overall.
District 3 Cobb commissioner JoAnn Birrell (pictured above at second from left with Cobb PARKS staff) was on hand as the kids got their awards last Saturday:
- 1st Place: Sean McGinnis
- 2nd Place: Maximus Patthammayong
- 3rd Place: Jackson Woodruff
- 4th Place: Matthew Martinez
- 5th Place: Landon Perry
Her office provided the info and photos, and gave a big thanks to Cobb PARKS operations staffers Mackie Temple and Brett Alfosin and Keith Weaver and Michael Sellars with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
