The Taylorville Police Department will be holding an event on Friday, June 16th. Fishing With Offishers will take place to teach children about the benefits of fishing and being involved with nature. Taylorville Police Officer Kirsten Beaman says that the event will take place at the Lake Taylorville Marina at 5:30 PM. 

Officer Beaman says that they will have gear on-site, but they are encouraging people who want to attend to bring their own if they have it. 

Registration is not necessary. 

Monetary Donations will be accepted to help support future projects and upcoming fishing events.  There will be prizes given as well. Visit the TPD Facebook Page for more information on the event.
