20th Annual Peter Larmand Outdoors Kids Fishing Tournament

Our 20th Annual Peter Larmand Outdoors Kids Fishing Tournament will be held once again on Saturday May 30, 2026. Our location will be once again at Lower Reach Park in Smiths Falls, depending on the construction the Town will be doing in the Park. Stay tuned for confirmation of location as we get closer to the date.

We also have major news about this event. 2026 will be the final year of the event. I started this event 20 years ago after hearing about how kids were not out enjoying the outdoors anymore and spending more time play video games. I wanted to share my passion for the outdoors with the next generation and over the past 20 years we have done that. Our first year we had 7 kids participate and we have grown to have 91 kids attend. Can we reach 100 kids in 2026?? That is the goal and we hope that you will attend and help us reach that goal.

However, we will continue to bring the passion of fishing to our next generation of anglers. 2025 we started the Angler/Young Tournament and we will continue that in 2026. We are also looking at starting a fishing camp to help young anglers that want to learn more about fishing than just fishing with a hook, bobber and worm. Watch for more information on that coming in 2026.
