Brookville Civic Club Getting Kids Hooked on Fishing

March 7, 2025

Author: Brookville Civic Club

The Brookville Civic Club is making waves in the community by partnering with Brookville Fly & Bait to provide the first 100 Voluntary Youth Fishing Licenses for Mentored Youth Fishing Day on Saturday, March 29th.  This initiative encourages kids to get outdoors, experience the joys of fishing, and learn a new skill—all while giving back to local waters.

In Pennsylvania, the Voluntary Youth Fishing License is more than just a pass to fish—it plays a crucial role in conservation efforts.  Each license triggers a federal reimbursement, whereas a Mentored Youth Permit does not.  By participating in this program, young anglers are not only gaining a new hobby but also contributing to the sustainability of their local waterways.

As an added bonus, kids receiving a free license through this program will be entered into a drawing for gift certificates to Brookville Fly & Bait to spend on their fishing journey.

The Brookville Civic Club is proud to continue its mission of giving back to the community through initiatives like this.  Please note that this partnership applies only to the Voluntary Youth Fishing License obtained at Brookville Fly & Bait (441 Madison Avenue, Brookville, PA) and does not extend to other license types or locations.

We encourage local families to take advantage of this opportunity and introduce their kids to the joys of fishing.  For more information, visit BrookvilleCivicClub.wordpress.com.  To stay up to date on our events and programs, follow us on Facebook!
