Chestermere Water Festival

Fishing Derby

This could very well be the origin of the Water Fest, if not, it certainly has been the one part of our event that brings the most dedicated patrons back year after year. This relentless group of men, women and children are the driving force behind the early start to the days events. This year as well a last, the Chestermere Knights of Columbus have offered to marshal the derby, but not without some help from a few dedicated locals who can't seem to escape their commitment to this part of the Festival.


Shortly after 6:am boats will be launched from Sunset Beach in an effort to catch the tagged fish. The prize for this fish?
$5000. Oh Ya, now it's starting to make sense. The early morning, the boat launch, and if it's like last year, the heat but all of this is well worth it with that kind of prize swimming just below your boat.

Register online or at Town Hall prior to July 24th or  you can register at Sunset Beach.

Boats can launch at hold at Sunset Beach starting at 5:30am.  

The derby runs between 6:00am - 12:00 noon.

Prizes will be handed out at Sunset Beach at 1:00pm and prize winners must be on site to receive prizes.
