Fishing rodeo winners listed
The 58th annual Ernest "Pig" Robertson Fishing Rodeo was held the first week of May and hosted by the City of Salem Parks & Recreation Department. Hundreds of families attended and enjoyed several nice days of fishing including the Saturdays of May 2nd and 9th.
The event was sponsored by Salem Parks & Recreation, Re/Max-Real Estate One and the Kiwanis Club of Salem. Many other businesses in the community also donated prizes and money to help make the event such a huge success. These rodeos would not be possible without each and every donation that is received.
