Joann Moore was the winner of the fishing contest Saturday during the Venango Fatherhood Initiative’s family fishing picnic at Two Mile Run County Park.

Moore caught a 13-inch bass. Caleb Coxson came in second place with an 11-inch bass.

There were 68 people in attendance for the event.

“It was such a delight to see so many smiling faces during the event,” said director Anthony Rosario-Adams. “This event gave some individuals the opportunity to go fishing for the first time.”

The initiative’s next event is the 24/7 Dad: fatherhood program and family groups that begin Monday, Sept. 18.
