 2021 EVENTS CALENDAR

Fallsburg Fishing & Boating Club

2021 DRAFT SCHEDULE COMING SOON!

Thanks to everyone for their patience during the Covid emergency.  As New York continued to reopen in 2020, we were (and remain) in Phase 4 with an allowance for groups of up to 50 to come together responsibly (with masks, social distancing and other measures); we started bringing back our events and meeting in small groups.  Please note that event details were subject to change and that social distancing protocols and other protective measures were necessary in order to remain safe and responsible.  Thanks to everyone for all your help so we could have another great
summer around Pleasure Lake - continue to stay safe and well over the off-season!


Please check here for information & event flyers - 2021 COMING SOON.
