    Instructions:

    Event check in: For the safety of our Littles, if you haven't done so already, we will ask you to sign a consent form and ask for your driver's license so we can take a picture for your Big for a Day profile. And if you sign up for another Big for a Day event, you won't need to show your driver's license again.

    Please note:

    • You may be matched with a Little 1-1 or in a small group.
    • Please only register if you're able to arrive by 12PM and stay until 2PM
    • Lunch and drinks will be provided.
    • The fishing is catch and release.
    • If needed, please have your driver's license handy when checking in.
    • We will email you a confirmation as a Big for a Day for this event.
    • You may invite others to be a Big for a Day with you! However, please have them fill out this form as well.
