La Crosse Lions Club hosts 9th annual 'Fishability' kids event

  The La Crosse Lions Club hosted its 9th annual “Fishability” kids fishing event for kids that are challenged to experience the great outdoors.

Around 26 kids came out and caught fish at the Genoa National Fish Hatchery using an accessible dock donated by Dairyland Power Cooperative. For the participants, everyone received a commemorative hat and medal to remember the day.

"This is my first time being a part of fishability. I thought it was very fun and it was cool to see a lot of people came here," said Paige Pugh, a participant at fishability.

Organizers from the Lion’s Club said they enjoyed the event because it’s a chance for kids with special needs just to enjoy a day on the water, and that it’s great to see their reaction.
