Conservation officers with the Division of Wildlife Resources are among those who will help you catch fish at the Cops, Bobbers and Badges event.

Saturday will be a day of family activities at the Carbon County Fairgrounds Community Fishing Pond and the USU Eastern Prehistoric Museum.
All are invited to enjoy the fishing alongside conservation officers with the Division of Wildlife Resources and Carbon County Sheriff’s deputies. They’re hosting a Cops, Bobbers and Badges event. The free event will be held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Youth of all ages are invited to participate.
“We’ll have some fishing poles on hand for those that need them,” says DWR Lieutenant Ben Wolford, “but if you have your own fishing gear, be sure to bring it. Another highlight of this event is our archery range. We’ll have bows, arrows and targets for everyone to use and enjoy.”
Even though the event is free, Utah state fishing regulations still apply, so youth ages 12 and older will need a valid fishing license to participate. Licenses can be purchased online at wildlife.utah.gov, at any DWR office and at most sporting goods stores.
Young outdoor enthusiasts can also handle a collection of pelts, antlers and skulls while learning about the animals that live in Utah’s wild places. Lunch will be provided.
Saturday will also be Family Activities Day at the Prehistoric Museum.
Admission is free from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Activities are scheduled from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.. The Waffle Love food truck will be there from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
