Join us on Sunday, June 15th for a Father’s Day celebration like no other at Haliburton Forest. Start the morning with a family-friendly fishing derby on Dutton and Blue Lake, where anglers can compete for prizes based on the length of their Brook or Rainbow Trout catches. The event is free to enter, with canoe rentals available for a minimum $5 donation, and all proceeds supporting the Haliburton Forest Fishing Society. Following the derby, head over to Boshkung Smokehouse at Base Camp for an afternoon of food, music, and celebration. The award ceremony will kick off with a delicious BBQ pig roast by Boshkung Smokehouse and a fish fry by Hook, Line & Sinker (proceeds from the BBQ will benefit the Haliburton Forest Fishing Society, while funds from the fish fry will support the HHOA Fish Hatchery).
