The Ootsa Lake Fishing Derby has been going on for over 30 years and will continue to be the Labour Day event that all fisher folks have on their calendars.
Please add it to your calendar now.
The money raised from the raffle ticket of the boat and motor will support of our ongoing efforts to make Wistaria community hall a safe and fully functioning community centerpiece once again.

We also value your helpful input so that each year we can better accommodate your needs.
