Exciting Weekend to be in the Bluegrass!

This upcoming weekend promises to be a good one.  Saturday June 4 is National Trails Day.  Parks, trail associations, paddling associations and many others are hosting special events across the state.  If you haven’t yet made plans, hop onto the homepage, www.getoutky.com, and check out the National Trails Day Calendar.  There is something for everyone all over the state.  Round up the kids, friends & family and get outside and enjoy one of Kentucky’s scenic trails.  This weekend is also the “Free Fishing Weekend” in Kentucky.  Anglers young and old can fish anywhere in the commonwealth without having a fishing license this Saturday & Sunday, the 4^th & 5^th of June.  With more miles of navigable water than any state in the lower 48, no matter where you live in Kentucky there is good fishing nearby.  A great option for fishing opportunities is in one of the Fishing in Neighborhoods Lakes (FINs) operated by the Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources.  There are 34 fins lakes in 21 counties currently, and all of them are regularly stocked.  For more information on Free Fishing Weekend, FINs lakes or anything fishing related, visit www.fw.ky.gov.  No matter what outdoor pursuit you choose this weekend, make sure you’re outside taking advantage of the great opportunities we have here in the Bluegrass!
