Fishing with Veterans

Join in a special celebration of a decade-long tradition at Holland State Park. This event marks both the 10th anniversary of Fishing with Veterans and America's 250th Anniversary with a unique boat parade through the channel. More than 40 boats piloted by over 100 veterans will make their way through the waterway, displaying the day's catches for spectators to see. Families are invited to line the channel before the parade begins at noon for an up-close view of this patriotic gathering. It's a wonderful opportunity to celebrate veterans and their contributions while enjoying a festive waterside experience. Come early to claim a good spot along the channel and watch this impressive procession of boats and anglers.
