Last Saturday’s Annual Kids Fishing Derby was another great success!

We witnessed some amazing catches and loved seeing the excitement at the weigh station throughout the morning. Each year, we're grateful for the opportunity to host this fun community event and provide great prizes for our casting contest winners, as well as 1st and 2nd place awards for the top weigh-in catches.

This event would not be possible without the support of our generous sponsors. Please join us in thanking Shop Smart Magazine, Kuert Concrete, Patten Monument of Indiana, The Salvation Army, and Texas Roadhouse for helping make this event possible!

Thank you to everyone who came out and spent the morning with us. We appreciate your continued support and hope to see you again soon at the Parks!

With the uncertainty surrounding tonight’s weather forecast, we’ve made the difficult decision to reschedule this evening’s concert featuring The American Legion Band of Fort Wayne at the Central Park Plaza.

With more than 40 band members and their equipment involved, we do not want to place anyone in a situation where their safety or equipment could be jeopardized by the weather.

We are currently working with the band to identify a new date, and we will share that information as soon as it has been finalized.

**Please note that this concert is a Warsaw Parks & Recreation event and is separate from the Kosciusko County Freedom Fest activities taking place at the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds. For updates regarding Freedom Fest events and any weather-related announcements, please visit their website at kcfreedomfest.org or follow the Kosciusko County Freedom Fest page. The Freedom Fest website serves as a primary source for event updates and announcements.**

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate these challenging decisions amid Indiana’s unpredictable weather. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to bringing this performance to our community at a later date.
