Pictou and Area Lions have two annual projects.
1. Pictou and Area Lions Club is organizes an annual family Fishing Derby in Pictou every May. A local pond is stocked with lots of trout the day before the derby. no one hardly goes home without a fish or two. This is a free event to all the community that everyone enjoys.
We have prize categories for, biggest fish, smallest fish, 1st fish, best dressed person fishing, oldest person fishing and the youngest person fishing just to mention a few.
2. Pictou and Area Lions Club is organizes an annual Soap Box Derby during the Annual Lobster Carnival held in July. Each year along with the help of some of the Carnival Committee we put on this event that is open to children 16 years and under.
All entries get to race down our famous Battery Hill until they lose two races which gets them eliminated. We give out medals and gift certificates to all entries and trophies for 1st 2nd and 3rd.
