Too bad. No matter what weekend we pick it's likely to conflict with something. #-o

Thanks, Mike. I plan to call the State Park home for the weekend either way & will join the festivities wherever you choose to host.

On the contrary, bring it to Chelan and it will get the best christening you could give it!

Are the State and City Parks near one another? I am only familiar with the Boat Launch and camping/park, on the left when reaching the Northern city limits of Chelan, when driving on Hwy 97. I've passed by that park several times, never paying attention to whether a State or City Park. So, which is which, and where is each located?

The state park is uplake 7-8 miles from the blue roofed condos, the city park is at the end of the lake in town, and Mills Bay is about 5 miles uplake on the Manson side of the lake.

When we decide for sure which location it is we will post a map.

Where does 25 mile creek fit in the mix? Is 25 mile creek and the "State Park" one and the same?

Is it possible for WaLakes to represent both the Lake Chelan Kokanee get together, and Lake Stevens Derby, one on the East side, one on the West side of the mountains, same day?

OK everyone, I apologize for the earlier "Firm Date" post. The May 14th date will pose an issue as I know many fish the Lake Stevens derby. Alternate date would be April 30th. Waiting to see if this date works. I already know it will conflict with something... #-o

Something Catchy Derby is 4/16.

We need to confirm the Lake Stevens Derby date. Aside from seeing it at the bottom of an events list I don't have an official confirmed date.

I couldn't find it anywhere, but it's been that second week in May the last couple years so no reason to think it won't be.
