[May 29, 2009]  Are you interested in catching the biggest fish? Learn how at Lincoln Park District's free Fishing Clinic on Tuesday, June 2, at 6:30 p.m. Herb Drier from the Department of Natural Resources will be our fishing guide. Learn about which bait catches which fish, how to tie on a hook and safety. There will be plenty of fishing tips and lots of giveaways!

Saturday, June 6, at 9 a.m. is the beginning of our annual D.A.R.E.-sponsored free Fishing Derby. Join us at Hickory Lane Campground in Atlanta and compete to win great prizes. Sgt. Greenslate will be there with the wiener wagon offering dogs, chips and sodas for lunch. Worms will be provided and anglers will need to supply their own poles.

Jump on in! Saturday, June 6, at 1 p.m. officially marks the beginning of our swimming pool season. A $5 early bird savings is available before June 1. Call 732-8770 for price quotes on individual or family packages.

We welcome Megan Farmer, graduate of U of I with a major in Spanish, as our Spanish instructor. Megan will offer lessons for young people beginning Monday, June 8, at 9 a.m. This is a great opportunity for students taking Spanish at the high school level this fall. This is a Monday-through-Friday offering hosted here at the park district.

Ms. Farmer will also offer Spanish lessons for adults on Tuesday evenings. Classes will begin at 6:30 and will be approximately one hour. Classes are scheduled for four weeks. Register now and make your Spanish-speaking vacation destination a little more enjoyable.

Julie Harris Larson joins us again for tennis lessons. From peewee to young adults, Julie has a game for you. Learn the fundamentals through fun games and drills, and benefit from Julie's vast knowledge of the game. Meet Julie on our indoor courts starting Tuesday, June 9. Classes are by age divisions and will meet at the same time through the rest of the week.

Tee ball is still accepting registrations. Coaches Chris Ciaccio and Brooke Eeten will teach the fundamentals of baseball, including hitting, fielding, throwing and base- running. Emphasis is on sportsmanship, teamwork and fun! All athletes must wear sneakers and have their own ball glove. Tee ball is played on Breezy Field. In case of bad weather, play will be on our indoor courts. Tee ball will run for six weeks on Saturday mornings.

Registrations are also being accepted now for Funny Business 101 with Julie Larson, nationally syndicated cartoonist; Golf Camp with instructor Jim Dunovsky; and Drama Camp with director Chris Gray. All of these are awesome opportunities to expose your young people to some of Lincoln's most talented people.
