The ‘Fish, Learn, Protect: Kiewa Community Recreational Fishing Day’ project is funded by the Victorian Fisheries Authority and proudly supported by the North East Catchment Management Authority and the Kiewa Valley Fishing Club.

While we are able to cater for vegetarian options at our events it is difficult to cater for every dietary requirement due to our limited funding. If you have dietary requirements outside of this please bring your own food and drink.
