SAXTONS RIVER — Fish will be biting at Saxtons River Recreation Area on Saturday, May 3, when the annual fishing derby, for kids 4 to 14, gets underway at 9 a.m.
Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. The pond is 1.3 miles north of the rec area on Pleasant Valley Road.
Derby participation is free, but the rec area is conducting a 50/50 raffle and a bake sale to support its activities.

Organizers say they seek volunteers to help with the derby and to provide baked goods.
