 Friends of Cal-Ore Fish AND Rowdy Creek Fish Hatchery are proud to present the 2010 Annual  steelhead fund-raising steelhead derby season with the following events:

 •  Chopper Derby – February 25, 26, 27, 2010

 •  Hank “Raider” Derby – March 11, 12, 13, 2010  

 All our events are fun-filled weekends for the fish while supporting the funding for Rowdy Creek Fish Hatchery  and several other projects FCOF has been sponsoring such as the Murchison Family Scholarship

 Fund, Fish Education in the Classroom, Oregon South Coast Fishermen programs and other local fisheries  programs. From the time you arrive on Thursday afternoon it is our goal to make sure you have a great time  enjoying the camaraderie, rivers, fish and tall tales.  

 In 2009, we were fortunate to have Jim “00” Otto and his crew of Oakland Raiders/Raiderettes, along with  General Chuck Yeager and his wife, Victoria, help raise money during the Hank Derby.

 Former 49er Eric Wright came to the Chopper Derby with his father who helped to entertain in the evenings.  Jim Bittle and Willie Boats continued the boat donations with a beautiful Willie Boat that was sold during the live  auction.  

 So, what is in store for 2010? A continuation of all the greatness you have come to know during these  wonderful events!
