The annual youth fishing contest was on Saturday, May 20, at the North Dam. The event, sponsored by Murdo Area Chamber of Commerce, Pheasants Forever, and the Sportsmens Club, had a great turnout of 38 kids participating.

Winners were as follows: ages 4-6 - 1st -  Nolan Van Dam and 2nd - Trig Erikson; ages 7-9 - 1st -  Max Van Dam, 2nd - Harlan Stevens and Coy McKenzie; and ages 10-12 - 1st -  Locks Bowen and 2nd - Titan Erikson. All seven won fishing poles and Max and Locks also scored a new backpack!
