The Kerkonko Evening Fishing Festival was held for the second time last Saturday, March 9th, in Hietaharju, Kerkonkoski. The event is a joyful demonstration of the volunteer spirit of the people of Kerkonkoski.<\/p>\n
The number of ice fishermen participating in the competition was the same as last year, 71 people. The largest catch was 2385g. Ice fishermen ranged from under-school age to senior citizens. The ice fishing competition was held in five different categories and the cash prizes were determined based on the number of participants. Children and young people received prizes in goods.<\/p>\n
On the ice of Hietaharju there was also other activities for the whole family on a Saturday in March. Those who wanted to try out tandem skiing, raffle tickets were sold and there was fishing for children. The lovely Vipa horse took us on a sleigh to the seine site to watch the winter seine haul. The fishermen's catch of fish from the seine this time was small, but there was plenty to marvel at in the operation!<\/p>\n
Kerkonkoski Evening Ice Fishing originated from the coffees, \"business food\" of Kerkonkoski entrepreneurs, in the fall of 2022. Kerkonkoski's summer is lively, but in winter, there are few meetings in the village, so we started working together on the idea of \u200b\u200ba winter event.<\/p>\n
Village shop Kosken Puotipiika Caf\u00e9 Kuha<\/em> served sausage, pea soup, wall-bottom pancakes and other delicacies to the event attendees on Saturday. There was a pleasant buzz of conversation at the long tables, as villagers and those from further afield met over a hot cup of coffee. The event organizers were most pleased by the happy faces and the chatter.<\/p>\n Event manager Juha Karppinen describes the talk show: \"On Friday, when we gathered, I noticed that the volunteers' batteries and mittens were full of volunteer energy. After the start on Saturday morning, the assembly of the competition site went smoothly, the tents were put up, the Baja hut was moved, the benches, chairs, fire pits, lights, signs and instructions were all quickly placed in their places. It was as if everything had been carefully planned in advance.\"<\/em><\/p>\n Karppinen jatkaa: \u201cThere were 45 volunteers in total, most of whom worked in ice fishing and some in Cafe Kuha, Wille's seine or Afterpilkki in Seurala. Not forgetting the ice maintenance team and those who were involved in spirit, the number is rising rapidly.<\/em> From my perspective, all the teams did their part very well, and I heard from many people that they were satisfied with the arrangements and offerings of the event.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Armata||||||||” custom_margin=”135px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The event day did not end with the ice fishing competitions, but the evening continued at the Village Hall Seurala. At 6:00 PM, a KeKe-RautU ice hockey match was played on the Seurala field. The battle was tight and the game ended in a 4-4 draw. A large crowd had gathered to cheer on their favorite teams.<\/p>\n The 150 tickets for the After Pilk organized by Kerkonkoski Keitaa were sold out, but even before the tickets went on sale, about 100 people had time to visit the Seurala. In total, well over 200 event guests visited the Seurala during the evening. The theme of the After Pilk was a masquerade, and the prize for the best costume was won by a gorgeous steampunk-style couple (picture). The crowd was entertained by the party band Ninety Show, and the evening continued late into the night to the tunes of DJ MIKSEI.<\/p>\n We would like to thank everyone who participated in the event!
