Dates set for Perch Derby

NEW BERLIN – The Oxford Lions Club is pleased to announce the date for 11th Chenango Lake Perch Derby is set for Feb. 6, 2010 with a postponement date of Feb. 20. Last year the Derby attracted over 800 registrants and spectators to Chenango Lake in the town of New Berlin, Chenango County. 



The Perch Derby will again feature a number of prizes for successful anglers including the largest perch and pickerel caught during the day.  Also, prizes will be offered for the largest perch caught during each 15 minutes of the Derby all day long! 

But perhaps best of all is the $1,000 cash prize for the lucky angler who catches the first specially tagged perch at the Derby. In the event that no one catches that specially tagged perch on Derby Day, the prize will be raffled off to those who have registered.  If the Derby is canceled due to insufficient ice, the prize will be raffled off to those persons who have pre-registered.
