The 30th Annual Lantana Fishing Derby brought the community together for fun, food, music and, of course, fishing. The event also honored one of the Lantana Chamber of Commerce’s original board members, Lynn ’Doc’ Moorhouse, who was instrumental in transforming what had been a struggling golf tournament into a thriving fishing derby. While the anglers were out at sea, the kids had a derby of their own — with a record-breaking 72 participants at Bicentennial Park. The awards party on May 4 at the Lantana Recreation Center was a perfect close to the weekend.
