The first annual Carp Contest was held on Saturday by the Lake Fremont Improvement Association.

The blistery wind and foggy weather at daybreak did not bode well for contestants but by day’s end 82 contestants participated in the event.

Here are a few pictures. Notice the beautiful pileated woodpecker who provided a brilliant display for us!
