Celebrate Father’s Day early with Columbus Urban League’s annual event: Fishing With Dad.
Taking place June 8, 10-2pm, Fishing with Dad is an interactive experience where children and fathers can come together alongside other members of their community. Alongside learning how to fish, the event will host other activities such as knot tying, identifying fish, and learning about fire and water safety.
